Terrorist and Proliferation Financing Controls

Terrorist financing looks nothing like money laundering: the amounts are small, the funds are frequently legitimate in origin, and the suspicion arises from purpose rather than from pattern, which is why monitoring built for laundering rarely detects it. This course covers the difference. Delegates work through how these funds actually move, including cash couriers, non profit misuse and informal value transfer, and the indicators that distinguish suspicion from ordinary small value activity. Proliferation financing and its link to sanctions evasion are covered. Targeted financial sanctions and asset freezing obligations follow. The course closes on assessing exposure in a non financial business and on reporting without tipping off.
