On 14 December, Mirage News reported that this risk assessment brings together knowledge from across government and a wide range of private sector stakeholders to provide a contemporary and consolidated picture of proliferation financing risk, how it is combatted and where efforts can be improved. It found that Australia is primarily targeted by state-based or -linked procurement networks that wish to exploit a range of sectors to export restricted, sensitive or dual-use goods and knowledge, on behalf of Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), Iran etc. Other significant proliferation financing threats include the use of third-country nationals to facilitate proliferation financing and evade sanctions, and the exploitation of Australian citizens to source and export sensitive technologies and knowledge for use by actors of proliferation concern.
