Criminals and terrorists need money. Disrupting financial flows and transactions is one of the most effective ways to fight crime and terrorism. This strategy can not only prevent future attacks by blocking material support, but also create intelligence on illicit purchases, withdrawals and other financial transactions that can be invaluable for ongoing investigations.
