The Al-Kuwari family, through Nectar Trust, has been identified as a primary sponsor of Al-Qaeda. Qatar Charity, with longstanding ties to Al-Qaeda, was designated as a 'Tier III (TSE) terrorist support organization' by the U.S. Interagency Intelligence Committee on Terrorism in 2008. Qatar Charity, primarily funded by the Qatari government, is linked to financing terrorism through high-ranking Qatari citizens, notably Ali bin Ahmed Al Kuwari, who controls the QNB banking network. Collaborating with private individuals, Qatar Charity accumulates substantial funds for groups like Al-Qaeda, Al-Nusra, laundering and storing money in Gulf country bank accounts. Qatar Charity also collaborates with banks like Masraf Al Rayan QSPC and Qatar Islamic Bank, but the main financial flows predominantly go through QNB.
Yousef Ahmed Al-Kuwari, the beneficiary of Qatar Charity, has a charitable organization named Nectar Trust. After high-profile attacks in the UK in 2017, Qatar Charity UK, linked to Nectar Trust, changed its name, possibly to avoid suspicion. Yousef Ahmed Al-Kuwari removed his official presence from Nectar Trust in May 2018, maintaining a leading managerial role but allowing him to distance himself from the UK activities. Nectar Trust continues commercial activities, benefiting from certain advantages and protection, making it challenging for affected parties to bring lawsuits against foreign governments accused of financing terrorist groups.
