Stopping the ability of terrorists to finance their operations is a key component of the U.S. counter-terrorism strategy. To accomplish this, the Bush Administration implemented a three-tiered approach based on: (1) intelligence and domestic legal and regulatory efforts; (2) technical assistance to provide capacity-building programs for U.S. allies; and (3) global efforts to create international norms and guidelines. Effective implementation of this strategy requires the participation of, and coordination among, several elements of the U.S. Government. This report provides an agency-by-agency survey of U.S. efforts as of August 2005. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find publication.
