Trouble at Home: The Clandestine Financing Networks Behind Domestic Terrorism and Violence
In the last year, Americans witnessed a level of political disorders unseen in decades, with ostensibly civil protests often infiltrated by organized instigators from both the left- and right-wing fringes bent on violence – leading to violence, property damage and the insurrection on Jan. 6 at the U.S. Capitol. Since 9/11 and the passage of the USA Patriot Act, BSA/AML specialists have been at the forefront of the fight against terrorist financing. But traditionally the greatest risks involved groups and individuals not based in the US. Clearly, that paradigm has shifted. And regardless of political ideology, CTF must be reinvented to manage the new threats and the covert financial networks from both sides of the political divide that fund them. This expert-led session homes in on these growing homegrown threats, providing authoritative yet practical guidance for countering them.
