This report, which was published by the UNODC and UNCTAD notes that combatting Illicit Financial Flows (IFFs) is a crucial component of global efforts to promote peace, justice and strong institutions. It reflects the results of international work on the statistical definition of IFFs and concepts to enable their measurement. The framework presented in this document has proved useful for assessing IFFs from trade in illegal commodities, as demonstrated by tests in pilot countries. The distinction between income generation and income management allows the use of statistics and estimates on illegal markets, such as supply, demand, price and seizure data, to approximate IFFs.
