Terrorist Financing Tracking Program (TFTP)

The Terrorist Financing Tracking Program (TFTP) is a U.S. government effort to identify and monitor financial transactions that may fund terrorism. It collects and analyzes international banking data, especially from foreign financial institutions, to detect suspicious transfers or accounts linked to terrorist activities. By doing so, TFTP helps authorities prevent the flow of money to terrorist groups, supporting national and global security. The program operates under strict legal and privacy safeguards to balance effective monitoring with the protection of individuals’ rights.
