This research paper thoroughly explains the concept of money laundering and examines the costs that are endured by the governments, financial institutions, but most importantly individuals who are most vulnerable to the influence of organized criminal groups engaging in money laundering. It also provides an analysis of the measures undertaken to prevent and detect money-laundering that are a highly effective means of identifying criminals and terrorists and the underlying activity from which money is derived. It discusses the application of intelligence and investigative techniques that constitute a way of detecting and disrupting the activities of terrorists and terrorist organizations. Most importantly, however, the paper argues that targeting the money laundering aspect of criminal activity and depriving the criminals of their ill-gotten proceeds means hitting them where they are vulnerable.
