Terrorism financing

The national risk assessment regarding the financing of terrorism that was published in June 2014 identified a need to increase knowledge and awareness about the financing of terrorism.

In an effort to become more knowledgeable, Finansinspektionen commissioned a report from the Center for Asymmetric Threat Studies (CATS) on the threat of terrorism financing and experiences of counteractive measures in other countries.

The report includes, for example, approaches and methods used to finance terrorism. It also includes a section on the models used in Canada and the UK to counteract, detect and prevent the financing of terrorism.
