The conference, which aims to elevate international cooperation in the counterterrorism field, discussed ways to enhance international collaboration and coordination with regards to the technical, legal, and regulatory aspects of countering terrorist financing.
It included a number of sessions on topics related to global terrorism trends and terrorist financing: the use of formal and informal channels, emerging technology, and the "dark web" by terrorists; international cooperation to address challenges in combatting terrorist financing; the misuse of financial institutions, remittances, and non-profit organisations; the link between organised crime and terrorist financing; and the role of public-private partnerships in countries working to combat terrorist financing.
