Dear Friend:
We are pleased to share with you that The Hon Daniel Glaser will
present "Protecting United States Currency: The Case of North Korea" at the ICAS Spring
Symposium 2006.
Daniel Glaser is the Treasury Department's Deputy Assistant Secretary
for Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes. In this role he functions as the primary
Treasury official for the development and coordination of international anti-money
laundering and counter-terrorist financing policy. Danny is a key official in developing
and implementing strategies to disrupt and dismantle money laundering and terrorist
financing networks worldwide, and has led the Treasury effort to identify and secure
the U.S. financial system from foreign money laundering and terrorist financing
threats.
DAS Glaser also plays a leading role in the fight against money laundering
and terrorist financing internationally. He serves as the head of the U.S. delegation
to the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) – the premier international body in the
fight against money laundering. In that role, Danny is Co-Chairman of the FATF Working
Group on Terrorist Financing, and has previously served as Chairman of the Americas
Review Group within the FATF Non-Cooperative Countries and Territories Process.
He has also addressed terrorist financing issues with an array of other international
bodies, including the G-7, the International Monetary Fund, and World Bank, and
has served as the lead Treasury negotiator of the money laundering provisions in
the U.N. Transnational Organized Crime Convention.
Danny previously served as
the first Director of Executive Office of Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes,
which was established in March 2003, and prior to that as the Director of the Money
Laundering and Financial Crimes Section within Treasury's Office of Enforcement.
He has also served as Senior Counsel for Financial Crimes in the Treasury Department
Office of the General Counsel, and prior to that as an attorney in the U.S. Secret
Service Office of the Chief Counsel.
Danny is a graduate of the University of
Michigan and the Columbia University School of Law, and began his career as an associate
in the law firm of Coudert Brothers.
