Many of the world's 40,000 International NGOs (INGOs) work in
places where terrorist financing, sanctions breaches, and diversion
are key risks. Almost all of the top ten recipient countries of
humanitarian aid alone in 2015 were high-risk jurisdictions, for
example, receiving more than GBP7bn between them. When they feel
safe to speak, sector workers share sobering stories about what
might have happened to some of this money. As INGOs struggle to
keep up with worsening humanitarian needs, diversion risks and
their complexity remain daunting. The demands of internal
stakeholders, donors, banks, and regulators are diverse and even
contradictory. Public scrutiny has magnified, but is not always
well-informed. Institutional donors transfer ever more risk to
implementing partners, while some banks seek to avoid this business
altogether, pushing some NGOs outside the global banking system.
Looming over all of these converging pressures is a latticework of
austere international sanctions and counter-terror regimes. It is
no surprise that INGOs find themselves struggling to reconcile this
complex set of expectations with their charitable missions. Yet the
consequences of failing to do so can be severe; future funding is
contingent on reputation, and serious offences litter the
regulatory landscape. The implications of breaches can be
existential for organisations and criminal for individuals.
Terrorist Diversion: A Guide to Prevention and Detection for NGOs
is an accessible, pragmatic guide for international NGOs of all
shapes and sizes. Clearly explaining the nature of the challenge,
and setting out a programme to meet it, it explores how it is
possible for INGOs to manage these risks more effectively through
their missions - not in spite of them.
