This briefer summarizes the key findings of the terrorist-financing risk assessment (TFRA) of non-profit organizations in Nigeria conducted by the Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering (SCUML). The TFRA rated the overall terrorist financing risk to NPO operations in Nigeria as Medium-High. Nigeria’s TFRA of the NPO sector aims to satisfy the requirements of Recommendation 8 (R8) of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) which requires countries to identify the subset of non-profit organizations (NPOs) vulnerable to terrorist financing (TF) risks.
