Illicit Financial Flows

A new UN report estimates that from the year 2000-2015 more than eighty-eight billion dollars leaves the African continent as illicit capital flight. United Nations Conference on Trade and Development’s Economic Development in Africa Report 2020 says stopping illicit financial flows could almost cut in half the annual financing gap of $200 billion that the continent faces to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
