Long abstract

This guidance is intended to assist jurisdictions in implementing the targeted financial sanctions and activity-based financial prohibitions contained in UNSCRs relating to prevention of WMD proliferation – currently S/RES/1695(2006), S/RES/1718(2006), S/RES/1737(2006) and S/RES/1747(2007).  It also provides a framework for further study of broad-based measures to combat WMD proliferation financing under S/RES/1540(2004) and S/RES/1673(2006).  This guidance is without prejudice to existing guidance in this area and is not intended to replace other measures or obligations that may already be in place.  It is not binding and is not directly related to the FATF 40+9 Recommendations.
