The central backstory of the 9/11 attack focuses on the need for financing to successfully carry out the acts of terrorism committed on that fateful day. This presentation will discuss the financial investigation conducted as part of the overall counterterrorism investigation after the attacks, and the critical importance of public and private sector partnerships.
This compelling presentation will discuss how terrorists were able to make their aspirations for the 9/11 attacks a reality and how the threat environment has morphed and changed 20 years later. From a financial perspective, it will start with the planning, execution, impact and how we responded to 9/11 from both a public and private sector standpoint. It will end with where we are today and how we should respond to evolving threats.
