The Prague Security Studies Institute (PSSI) has analyzed the financial background of disinformation since 2020. Research on disinformation usually focuses on its content, but often over-looks the financial aspects and the variety of motivations behind the spread of disinformation. Knowledge concerning these aspects is crucial for employing effective tools for countering disinformation and building a healthy information space with resilient audiences. The present research demonstrates that disinformation can be a financially profitable business and defunding should be explored as a counter-strategy to malign information activities.
