Singapore announces Five-Pronged Strategy to Counter the Financing of Terrorism

14 October 2022

On 7 October 2022, Singapore launched the National Strategy for Countering the Financing of Terrorism ("CFT").

Seeking to enhance coordination across law enforcement agencies, policy makers, regulators, supervisory agencies, and the private sector, the National CFT Strategy covers five points to act as a roadmap for the development of future action plans to combat terrorism financing:

  1. Coordinated and Comprehensive Risk Identification
  2. Strong Legal and Sanctions Frameworks
  3. Robust Regulatory Regime and Risk Targeted Supervisory Framework
  4. Decisive Law Enforcement Actions
  5. International Partnerships and Cooperation

The National CFT Strategy came out from findings from a terrorism financing assessment carried out in 2020.
