Panel Discussion: ‘Financial and economic crime in the Global South’
Illicit financial activities undercut economic growth across Global South countries and hinder development efforts.
This event will critically examine whether the current global financial regulatory framework is best suited to effectively combat financial and economic crime in the Global South. We will discuss recent trends in financial and economic crime, the evolving global standards and their implementation challenges in the Global South, and the unintended consequences of implementing global standards across different contexts.
