DA4601 Threat Financing
The topic of threat finance covers a range of actors – including terrorists, insurgents, organized crime groups, hostile states, kleptocracies, and near-peer competitors – and how these various entities raise funds, move funds, and spend those funds for nefarious purposes. This class will explore examples of each of these actors as well as how their activities exploit issues like corruption, transborder smuggling, shadow economies, ungoverned spaces, resource scarcity, technological advances (e.g. cryptocurrencies), money laundering, and climate-driven conflict.
