The National Security Institute, the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, the Center for a New American Security, and the Center for Strategic and International Studies are excited to present Revisiting Treasury’s War: The History and Future of the Treasury Department’s Role in National Security. 


This two-event series brings together two decades of the Treasury Department’s national security leadership to discuss the role the Department, and particular, Terrorism and Financial Intelligence (TFI), plays in strengthening the U.S. national security strategy. The series will include participants from all the major components of TFI, including the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (OIA), the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), and the Office of Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes (TFFC).


This panel covered the use of financial tools to achieve national security and foreign policy objectives in the aftermath of September 11 through the current era given that sanctions and other such tools are an increasingly prominent—if not the primary—tool of effectuating foreign policy and national security goals, and what lessons might be learned from two decades of such work.

 

Featuring:


  • Daniel Glaser, Former Assistant Secretary for Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes;
  • Jennifer Fowler, Former Acting Assistant Secretary for Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes
  • Juan Zarate, NSI Advisory Board member and Former Assistant Secretary for Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes; and
  • Jamil N. Jaffer, NSI Founder and Executive Director (Moderator)
