rdfs:comment	Al-Bakarat, o Al-Barakaat es un grupo que engloba a un grupo de compañías financieras ubicadas en Somalia, y dedicadas principalmente al sector de las telecomunicaciones. Fundada en 1986 (antes de la guerra civil), el grupo adoptó rápidamente el hawala, un menos estricto y más seguro (en el caso de los países pobres) que el sistema financiero formal. Como consecuencia de los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001, sus cuentas fueron suspendidas por EE. UU.; para ese mismo año, el grupo operaba en 40 países y albergaba la mayor cantidad de empleados del país.[cita requerida] * Datos: Q286876 (es) バラカート（アル・バラカアト、アラビア語: البركات‎, 英: al-Barakat, al-Barakaat）は1986年にソマリアで作られた企業グループ。金融機関としての役割が大きい。2001年のアメリカ同時多発テロ事件(911)をきっかけに国連から資産凍結措置を受けている。バカラートの創設者アーメド・ヌル・アリ・ジマーレ（Ahmed Nur Ali Jimale）は、資産凍結措置を受けた時にはアラブ首長国連邦に住んでいた。なお、バラカートはアラビア語で「祝福」を意味し、この記事の組織と無関係に「バラカート」の名を持つものもある。 (ja) Al-Barakat är en sorts bankverksamhet enligt principen hawala, som bygger på tillit. En person i ett land är betrodd och tar emot pengar från en person som skall skicka pengar till en annan person. Sedan ringer Al-Barakat-ombudet till ett annat ombud i annat land eller på annan plats och talar om för denne att de skall betala pengarna till en viss person. Al-Barakatsystemet är vanligt förekommande i länder som saknar fungerande banksystem, till exempel Somalia och Kongo-Kinshasa. Al-Barakat har anklagats av USA för att vara en täckmantel för finansiering av terroristverksamhet.
