Research and Public Policy Series

The events of 11 September 2001 have heightened interest in ensuring that all sectors of the financial system are not misused either by criminal or terrorist groups.

This brief considers the characteristics of alternative remittance businesses, the risks they pose and some of the current responses to these risks.
