GFI and Task Force Director Raymond Baker speaks in Norway in an event sponsored by Publish What You Pay. He speaks about how the global shadow financial system creates tremendous human tragedy through $1.2 trillion per year of illicit financial flows, and how extractive industries transparency can help fix the system.
Baker says that Norway should “Move forward with what it thinks is right, and what it thinks the standards should be for the whole world. In a word, lead. On this issue of transparency in extractive industries, lead, and the whole world will follow.”
