There have been a few interesting developments resulting from the February 3 hearings on trade-based money laundering. (See other blog and articles posts). It appears that there maybe some legislative initiatives. See this article posted February 8th in The Hill: http://thehill.com/policy/finance/269784-lawmakers-eye-crackdown-on-illicit-trade
I was recently honored to join the Board of Advisors of the Center for Sanctions and Illicit Finance (CSIF), which is part of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies. (FDD). The CSIF does great work bringing attention to various issues surrounding threat finance. More information is available here:
