OverviewThe financing of terrorism and its related activities may be ages old, however, formal directions to counter this threat is a relatively a new phenomenon. While initiatives commenced internationally in 1963, with the adoption of 14 universal legal instruments and four amendments, Countering Financing of Terrorism (CFT), came into focus in 1999. The world witnessed unprecedented devastation in all its manifestations on 9/11 with an impact that was similar to that of aircraft crashing into the twin towers.

The war on CFT was formalized soon thereafter with the adoption of the International Convention for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism.
