Dear Friend,

The Sentry’s latest report, “Targeting Dynamic Illicit Financing Networks with Blocked Pending Investigation (BPI) Listings,” highlights a powerful sanctions tool. These rapid-response designations enable the US Treasury to impose immediate financial pressure while investigations continue—matching the speed and complexity of today’s illicit networks.

The new report also underscores the vital role that financial institutions, civil society, and NGOs can play by providing sanctioning authorities with the timely, credible information they need to act swiftly and effectively.

This work reflects The Sentry’s model: hard-hitting “follow the money” investigations that expose the dirty money fueling war and human suffering—combined with expert policy recommendations to drive lasting change.

Read the report and please share with your colleagues.

Thank you for standing with us. Your support is more critical than ever.

Sincerely,

Laura Ferris

Director, Illicit Finance Policy
