  • assess the methods by which transnational organized crime groups launder illicit proceeds;
  • describe the roles of U.S. agencies and departments to combat the financing and financial facilitation of transnational organized crime groups; and
  • review current efforts and proposed changes to combat the financing or financial facilitation of transnational organized crime.
