Financial

The Financial Response Project analyzes the ways in which terrorists finance their operations. This project aims to work with the banking and the financial community to develop indicators to detect terrorist funds. As with many counter-terrorist initiatives, the response of the agencies and organizations in the financial and the banking sector in the region has been positive. These organizations do not seek to preempt new developments in terrorist financing and other criminal money transactions. Even though the banking and the financial sectors in the region have developed some expertise on money laundering issues, there is a distinct lack of understanding about the dynamics of terrorist financing. ICPVTR has begun a training and capacity building project with the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS) called the ABS Fellow Project. Two senior bankers are seconded for one year to ICPVTR to develop indicators for terrorist financing in the banking channels as well as to create a comprehensive database on terrorist financing.
