美国财政部宣布制裁两家伊朗海事保险相关机构,称其借霍尔木兹海峡通行风险,向过境商船收取带有强制性质的保险费用,并通过相关安排为伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队输送资金。美方还指出,其中一项平台安排接受比特币和其他数字资产付款。

涉及两家海事机构

此次被列入制裁名单的分别是 Persian Gulf Marine Insurance Company,以及 HormuzSafe Marine Services Authority,后者也被称为 Hormuz Safe。美国财政部海外资产控制办公室称,这一所谓保险安排本质上更接近勒索,而非正常商业保险。

按照美方说法,相关保单覆盖的风险包括船只被扣押等情况,而这些风险本身大多与伊朗方面的行为有关。也就是说,船只若要通过霍尔木兹海峡,可能被迫购买针对相关风险的保险。

平台被指接受加密资产付款

美国财政部称,Hormuz Safe 由伊朗经济部推动开发,属于伊朗试图绕开西方制裁的一部分。声明提到,该平台接受比特币和其他数字资产付款,这类支付方式与传统银行转账一样,都会落入制裁风险范围。

CoinDesk 此前在 5 月 18 日曾报道这一计划。当时依据的是与伊朗官方有关联的媒体说法,内容提到伊朗方面拟通过以比特币结算的海事保险模式,管理霍尔木兹海峡航运。

不过在当时,相关网站仅显示一个落地页,CoinDesk 未能独立确认平台是否已经实际运行,也无法确认是否已有货主使用。伊朗媒体当时称,该模式可能带来超过 100 亿美元收入,但未说明测算依据。

外国公司同样面临次级制裁风险

美国财政部表示,这些保单由 Persian Gulf Strait Authority 批准,该机构已在今年 5 月被美方制裁。此次两家机构则依据一项针对伊朗石油和石化行业的行政命令被列入名单。

被制裁后,美国个人和企业将被禁止与这两家公司交易。与此同时,外国公司如果与其发生业务往来,也可能面临次级制裁。美方特别强调,使用比特币支付并不会降低这一风险暴露。

霍尔木兹海峡是全球最重要的能源运输通道之一。近期美国对伊朗发动打击后,相关地区紧张局势持续,海峡通行量有所下降,国际油价也因此维持在高位。此次制裁将航运安全、能源运输、地缘冲突与加密资产支付再次联系到一起。
