The funds, financial assets and economic resources of those who commit or attempt to commit terrorist acts or participate in or facilitate the commission of terrorist acts and of persons and entities acting on behalf of terrorists should also be frozen without delay."

The AMLA, as amended, also provides that the AMLC shall have the power to require and receive covered or suspicious transaction reports from covered institutions and to enlist the assistance of any branch of the government in undertaking any and all anti-money laundering operations.
