Financing of Terrorism

Terrorist finance, i.e. the use of funds to support acts of terrorism and terrorist groups, underpins terrorist activity globally, which threatens peace and prosperity.

According to the AML/CFT Law, the obliged entities report suspicious terrorist financing to the APML. The APML has an organisational unit dealing with CTF (CTF Team). Suspicious persons and transactions are analysed and information shared with other relevant agencies and international partners.

 

In addition, the APML takes part in the Working Group for Supervision of Non-Profit Organisations to help the NPO sector  avoid being misused for terrorist financing purposes.

The APML director is also a permanent member of the National Coordination Body for the Prevention and Fight against Terrorism.
