World-Check Alerts the Financial Community to Terrorists Ahead of U.S. Government Authorities
London (PRWeb) December 20, 2006 -- World-Check, the leading provider of risk related intelligence to the financial community, has once again proven its worth as an early warning system of heightened-risk individuals and entities. On December 6th, the US Treasury added nine individuals and two businesses to the OFAC list. World-Check had already previously profiled five of the nine individuals. One of the individuals, Sobhi Mahmoud Fayad, has been on World-Check for almost three years.
World-Check is proud of having identified many of the members of this terrorist financing network, described by the U.S Treasury as a 'major financial artery to Hezbollah.' World-Check's specialist Terrorism Research team devotes extensive human and technological resources to 'connecting dots' and 'joining pieces' of information that regularly have shown to be of great importance.
"We are delighted at our continued success in uncovering real risk on behalf of the financial and governmental communities," said David Leppan, World-Check's CEO and Founder. "The importance of, and indeed the recognition that open source intelligence is key to reducing risk, is substantiated by World-Check's acceptance as a most valued resource by so many institutions and agencies around the world."
