During the McCarthy hearings, the people who were most likely targeted were those in the entertainment business. McCarthy used several criteria to get them blacklisted. These included those who were viewed as sympathetic or had ever been a member of the American Communist Party, or being a member of progressive groups that the McCarthy panel viewed as pro-Communist. The victims were barred from getting any work, and saw once great careers ruined based on false accusations.
In the US there are no such things. I'm not sure they would be used most anywhere.
That's because other than being illegal, they would have no good purpose. Each bank/lender/business makes it's own decisions...and a list of customers others don't want to have, would only be a benefit to those looking for new customers! They are competitors...why would anyone want to hurt itself to help it's competitor? They don't and won't! Believe it or not....there really isn't a conspiracy by all these against YOU...you ain't that important. Of course, if you may have a bad history that would make any reasonable business avoid you like the plague.
Same true for the idea there is an "employer" backlist. Cos compete for good employees...if you are one, that's all that matters...no they wouldn't give up a profitable job because their competitor said they would like it....and the same is true about an employee...they ain't going to do what their competitior says, just because...heck...they would probably do the opposite.
However, the US does use credit services that report your credit history and even give it a grade. Banks and any credit providers generally use these as a primary tool for seeing if someone pays back on time, and is truthfull in their application. They are made by 3rd parties, not involved in any actual lending...and are available to everyone...and for free to the person whose report it is. (In fact if your credit request is denied because of anything found on a credit report, that info must be provided to you when they tell you of your denial).
If you have bad credit that is your doing - and you can expect to be denied loan applcations or others doing business with you. These things are not a right to you, but doing them only with whom one wants, is a right to everyone. Financial discrimination is entirely legal. If your credit report is inaccurate - it reports things that didn't happen...not that you don't like - the credit reporter MUST correct them upon your request and providing proof.

Blacklist who were most likely to be named on these lists?
North America specific: A blacklist is when Buisnesses keep lists of people who they do not want to work with. Well yes; alot of buisness owners were racist, they did not put actual blacks on the black list normally, because it either was not necessary, or they did not feel compelled to make racism a consistent policy . The most famous case of blacklisting was the way many movie studios blacklisted actors suspected of communist sympathy, refusing to provide work to Charley Chaplin and others.
