Guidance

Duties and responsibilities under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002

This advice explains how operators can make sure they and their employees comply with their obligations under The Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA).

14 - Terrorist financing

The Terrorism Act 2000 (opens in a new tab) establishes several offences about engaging in or facilitating terrorism, as well as raising or possessing funds for terrorist purposes. The Terrorism Act also contains defences to the principal terrorist property offences, in a similar way to POCA. Operators should report instances of suspected terrorist financing to the NCA using the same methods as those for the reporting of known or suspected money laundering activity.

Terrorist financing is discussed in Terrorist financing of this advice.
