50% Of Agency For Terror-Finance Reports Helped Shin Bet In Terror Cases
[Jpost] The state said that there was an 18% increase in requests for information from foreign countries, which since 2013 adds up to a 162% increase.

Around 50% of intelligence cables which the Authority for Combating Money-Laundering and Terror Financing forwarded to the Shin Bet during the past year successfully contributed to the security agency’s counter-terror activities.

The statistics were presented on Monday as part of the Authority’s annual report, which said that the high percentage showed its strong effectiveness.

In addition, the report noted a 26% increase in reports of irregularities in the Bitcoin sector over the last year, as that sector has grown and the state has taken a keener interest in its regulation.

Finally, the state said that there was an 18% increase in requests for information from foreign countries, which since 2013, adds up to a 162% increase.

The report said that this shows Israel’s advancement in enforcing complex areas of terror-financing law and the world’s recognition of that advancement.
