THE SYSTEM OF COUNTERACTING AND COMBATING TERRORIST FINANCING IN POLAND IN VIEW OF THE EXISTING THREATS

Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 17

Abstract

<i/>The article includes issues related to counteracting and combating terrorist fi nancing in Poland in the context of existing threats. The regulations in force on the international level, and provisions governing these issues in the Polish legal system are both discussed. Based on data from the General Inspector of Financial Information (Generalny Inspektor Informacji Finansowej), the Ministry of Justice and National Prosecutors’ current eff orts to combat the practice of the terrorist financing in Poland are summarised. The article shows the potential hazards for terrorist organisations, who use gaps in the Polish system to make attempts to transfer money for criminal practices. One aim of the publication is to attempt to answer the question whether Poland, to a suffi cient degree, is prepared for combatting terrorist fi nancing and whether it is able to do it eff ectively, taking into consideration the scale and character of existing threats.</i><br/><br/>
