In the context of reforming all spheres of state life, the issues of ensuring national security are one of the main ones. The international position of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the spread of international terrorism, the aggravation of threats to the interests of citizens, society and the state require the development of effective measures aimed at ensuring national security. One of the directions of ensuring the national security of the country is countering the laundering of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism, as well as improving the national security system in accordance with international standards (AML / CFT) and financing the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction of the Financial Action Task Force on Combating Money Laundering money obtained from crime (FATF). The January events in Kazakhstan showed that the groups that organized crimes, riots and mass pogroms in the southern metropolis and other large cities had a clear scenario. This is clearly evidenced by the seizure of the akimat, the airport, TV channels with a failed attempt to organize television broadcasting. No one doubts that the peaceful rally against the rise in prices for liquefied gas was used by destructive elements for their own purposes. This is evidenced by the preparedness of the terrorists and, as mentioned above, by a clear plan of action. All this, logically, should be financed in some way, since terrorist activity is caused by the observed trends in increasing the level of its organization, creating large terrorist formations with a developed infrastructure at home and abroad, strengthening the relationship between terrorist and organized crime, including transnational, as well as attempts to use terrorist activities as an instrument of interference in the internal affairs of the state. The authors studied the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan «On countering the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism» and proposed new solutions to this issue.
