The banks already have these sections built in, to varying degrees. Treasury to an extent (FinCEN) as well as the federal LEAs do investigations. SOF has used it to identify when IEDs were going to be employed (up-tick in $$) and ultimately rolling up the IED cell. There are other instances too.
Treasury has the responsibility for sanctions and financial designations.
State has the responsibility for demarches and terrorist designations.
FBI has the responsibility for funding of terrorism.
HSI has the responsibility for bulk shipment of cash.
DEA has the responsibility for drug, and drug nexus to terrorism, money.
DOD has the responsibility for CTF in a conflict area.
