National Terrorist Financing Risk Assessment

"The fight against money laundering and terrorist financing is a pillar of U.S. national security and a strong financial system. It is an undertaking that requires the coordinated and dedicated efforts of policy maters, law enforcement, supervisors, and the private sector, particularly financial institutions. It is essential that we work closely together to develop and effectively implement strong laws and regulations to detect, deter, and disrupt illicit finance.  Equally important is that we understand and communicate the money laundering and terrorist financing threats, vulnerabilities, and risks facing our country.
