Activities:

As of September 2017, Islamic State-affiliated al-Khalidi served as a hawala financial exchange office. All locations were run by two individuals who knowingly assisted Islamic State members in financial transfers.


Al-Khalidi’s office in Mayadin, Syria also served as an internet café for Islamic State members in addition to its function as a hawala money transfer office.


As of early 2017, al-Khalidi in al-Raqqah, Syria, and Gaziantep, Turkey were involved in Islamic State’s transfer of funds from Iraq through al-Raqqah, Syria, to Gaziantep, Turkey, in support of Islamic State. As of 2017, Islamic State also transferred money into Syria via al-Khalidi.


As of late 2016, Al-Khalidi was the most important financial transfer office in the region used to move money to fund Islamic State-held areas.


Al-Khalidi was the largest financial exchange office that dealt with Islamic State. Hundreds of thousands of dollars per day passed through the office in Sanliurfa, Turkey.


As of mid-2016, Fawaz al-Rawi, who was subsequently designated in late 2016 as an ISIS financier, arranged for cash shipments to Iraq and Turkey.


Fawaz al-Rawi was the owner and operator of the designated Hanifa Currency Exchange in Albu Kamal, Syria, which he used to store Islamic State external funds.


Fawaz al-Rawi conducted financial transactions with agents and transfer currency-exchanges throughout the region, including al-Khalidi exchanges in Sanliurfa, Turkey.


As of mid-2015, al-Khalidi’s Istanbul, Izmir, and Sanliurfa branches facilitated money transfers and transactions for Islamic State.


During this same timeframe, Islamic State maintained a telephone directory of associates and managers of various Islamic State offices, which included Syria-based locations for al-Khalidi Exchange and al-Hebo Jewelry Company.
