GLOBAL ISSUES
Mon, 03/21/2022 - 1:20pm-2:20pm

The chaotic end of America’s longest war swept the Taliban back into power and raised renewed prospects for Afghanistan becoming a safe harbor for terrorism, money laundering and trafficking in illegal drugs, with the possibility of it spreading throughout the region. Furthermore, the country has also seen a resurgence in activity by ISIS-K, an ISIS affiliate that has shown it has no qualms about murdering innocents, as evidenced by the bombing attack on the Kabul airport last September. Clearly, staying ahead of the issues is a strong challenge for AML professionals. This authoritative panel – comprising experts in latest intelligence as well as terrorist financing networks – shares what they know, and what you need to.
