Money Laundering in China: Why PACOM Should Place High Priority on this Issue

Abstract

Based on the effects transnational organized crime (TOC) and violent extremist organizations (VEO) in China have on the PACOM AOR and the world, along with the fact anti-money laundering (AML) decreases funding needed by TOC and VEO to further their operations, it is clear a more effective AML program in China will benefit PACOM. PACOM participation will serve to lessen what is now a significant blind spot with regard to all criminal intelligence related to TOC and VEO in China. This will allow PACOM entities to more effectively combat TOC and VEO as required by the command's strategic guidance while opening up new engagement opportunities.
