According to French President Francois Hollande, the world's biggest businesses must do their part to fight terrorism by taking action against trafficking and money laundering.

The world's biggest businesses must do their part to fight terrorism by taking action against trafficking and money laundering, French President Francois Hollande said when arriving at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Two weeks after the attacks that saw 17 killed by Islamist gunmen in Paris, Hollande told reporters that his message to business leaders gathered in Davos would be: "I will tell big corporates, including financial ones, that they must live up to their responsibilities.

"The response needs to be global, international, shared between those states that are on the front line [against terror]," he told 2,000 assembled business leaders. "But this effort must also include businesses, especially the biggest ones, who have a duty to act," he added.
