Abstract

This study employs a bibliometric analysis of emerging trends in money laundering for terrorism financing (ML/TF) to provide direction for future research. The authors used VOSviewer and analyzed 2577 published documents retrieved from the SCOPUS database using the PRISMA methodology. The findings reveal a growing research interest in understanding the complex interplay between money laundering and terrorism financing. This research emphasizes the significance of ML/TF for economic stability, as understanding terrorism financing mechanisms allows authorities to trace and block funds going to terrorist groups, which is crucial for national security. Critical insights for policymakers underscore the need for robust legislative frameworks, effective Financial Intelligence Units (FIUs), and international collaboration to combat these global threats. This analysis offers a foundation for future research, mapping the evolving knowledge landscape in ML/TF.
