Terrorism Financing Risks in NPOs

11 June 2012

On 14 June 2012 in Belgrade a workshop on money laundering and terrorist financing risks in NPO sector (that is, in associations and civil society organizations) will be held, risks which albeit present seem to be insufficiently addressed, both by some relevant authorities and the non-profit organizations themselves. The workshop is held within the framework of MOLI Project, it brings together the representatives of relevant state authorities (the Administration, Business Registers Agency, Ministry of Interior, Security Information Agency, Tax Administration...) and non-profit organizations, as well as distinguished presenters from Great Britain – a representative of the Charity Commission and a representative of the Institute for Statecraft. This workshop is expected to be a significant outreach to the NPO sector, with the aim to eliminate the “non-compliant” rating in this area according to the international standards.
