MSAG is an apolitical and informal assembly of like- minded states that work to reduce the number of small arms and light weapons in circulation, and to minimize the number of accidents associated with them. It has two thematic areas of international assistance and cooperation. Both are aimed at reducing destabilizing accumulations; and combating the uncontrolled spread of ammunition; and preventing their illicit trafficking of SALW/CA (by promoting the proper management and security of national stockpiles).
