2020 Bangkok – Boiling Point to Turning Point: The 8th Financial Transparency Conference
It is 2020, yet an international consensus on what illicit financial flows are, and how they should be tackled is still to be reached. As states face a growing legitimacy and political crisis globally, developing countries continue to bear the most retrogressive impact of illicit finance on social justice, rights and intersecting inequalities.
2017 Helsinki – Transparency’s Tipping Point: The 7th Financial Transparency Conference
From the halls of the United Nations and G20 Summits to the streets of cities across the world, illicit financial flows are becoming a hotly debated topic. High profile leaks like the Panama Papers have drawn the public’s attention to the extreme secrecy available for the right price. When trillions of dollars flow through a shadow financial system beyond public scrutiny, citizens of rich and poor countries both lose. Northern governments under pressure to stop illicit financial flows have been outspoken in communiqués and press releases, but 3 of the top 5 secrecy jurisdictions still lie in Europe and the U.S. This, coupled with a number of recent backslides on financial transparency, makes a concerted push all the more timely.
