Summary, etc The report synthesises information gathered by the Caucus staff through briefings, interviews, and a review of documents from government and non-government experts. It reveals that an estimated $1.6 trillion-2.7 percent of global GDP laundered in 2009 hence more need to be done to address the scourge of money laundering. Available information suggests that the United States currently seizes less than one percent of illicit outbound cash flows along the Southwest border and even less money laundered through the international financial system. As transnational criminal organizations are motivated and enabled by their enormous profits, the United States should place greater emphasis on investigating and disrupting money laundering operations. Illicit funds are directly responsible for the violence and deaths caused by criminal groups around the world. Arresting money launderers and seizing funds is an integral part of our fight against these groups. We offer the following recommendations to strengthen current efforts:
