„Państwo islamskie” to organizacja terrorystyczna, która przez kilka lat okupowała i administrowała rozległym terytorium, zamieszkanym przez kilka milionów ludzi. Było tak, chociaż wolę jej zwalczania wyrażały wszystkie znaczące siły polityczne świata. Przetrwanie w tak niekorzystnych okolicznościach zapewnił „Państwu islamskiemu” bardzo wydajny system ekonomiczny, oparty w największej mierze na rabunku dokonywanym na firmach, instytucjach i ludności podbitych terytoriów, dochodach uzyskiwanych ze sprzedaży surowców (głównie ropy naftowej i gazu ziemnego), handlu ludźmi, a także obiektami zabytkowymi pozyskiwanymi z muzeów i stanowisk archeologicznych. Niewielki udział w budżecie ISIS mają wpłaty od bogatych sponsorów z Kataru i Arabii Saudyjskiej

The "Islamic state" is a terrorist organization that has occupied and administered a vast territory, inhabited by several million people for several years. This was so, though all the major political forces of the world declared the necessity of eliminating it from the international scene. Survival of the “Islamic state” in such unfavorable conditions was possible thanks to the creation of a very efficient economic system, based largely on the robbery of corporations, institutions and populations of conquered territories, income from the sale of raw materials (mainly crude oil and natural gas), human trafficking, as well as the historical objects from museums and archeological sites. A small share of the ISIS budget is donated by wealthy sponsors from Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

The article describes the ways of defining the money laundering phenomenon, the mechanisms for money laundering, and the legal regulations on related crimes. It also presents the characterization of the AML system (prevention of money laundering and terrorism financing) that is in force in Poland. Money laundering denotes introducing to the legal turnover of funds coming from criminal activities. It is a serious threat due to its negative impact in the economic system, but also because of its close connections with basic crimes in which organised criminal groups are frequently involved. Technological changes and the growing creativity of criminals call for the AML system to adjust to new challenges, and to react to them effectively. In order to reduce the scale and scope of the phenomenon, numerous regulations are being introduced aimed at its neutralizing. The regulations in the AML area can be commonly binding as legal acts, or they can constitute the so called soft laws, such as recommendations or guidance. Poland, similarly to other states, makes them implemented since the effectiveness of the institutions that fight against money laundering is much higher when they collaborate within international organisations than when respective legal provisions are introduced in national legislatures.

Pranie pieniędzy jest uważane za jedno z poważniejszych zagrożeń dla systemu finansowego państwa, godzących w prawidłowość obrotu gospodarczego. Przeciwdziałanie mu stanowi wyzwanie dla instytucji publicznych oraz komercyjnych, które są bezpośrednio i pośrednio zaangażowane w tzw. system przeciwdziałania praniu pieniędzy. Obecnie obserwowane zmiany technologiczne, sytuacja geopolityczna, pomysłowość przestępców oraz luki w systemie sprawiają, że pomimo rosnącej wiedzy na temat sposobów i mechanizmów prania pieniędzy konieczne jest podejmowanie coraz to nowych inicjatyw mających uszczelnić system finansowy i w założeniu oczyścić go z „brudnych” środków. W artykule zostaną podjęte kwestie związane z definiowaniem i mechanizmami prania pieniędzy, opisane wybrane regulacje dotyczące tych przestępstw, a także zarysowany polski system instytucjonalny powołany do walki z owym procederem.
