These are in the same ballpark as aid & loans to govt 'for that continent'. But (1) the estimates are not at all reliable https://www.cgdev.org/blog/illicit-financial-flows-and-trade-misinvoicing-time-reassess …https://globalanticorruptionblog.com/2016/01/05/its-time-to-abandon-the-2-6-trillion5-of-global-gdp-corruption-cost-estimate/ …
(2) continent-wide comparisons not all that meaningful -- most of the big estimates relate to a few countries (3) IFFs are not all like 'aid in reverse' --offshored private assets &laundering criminal profits are different in terms of public finances to theft of public assets
In short: this is not a massive misunderstanding of the estimates that exist, but its not all that meaningful either. It is an arresting factoid from a communications perspective but it risks creating unrealistic expectationshttps://globalanticorruptionblog.com/2016/01/20/waging-at-corruption-a-modest-proposal/ …
'Just think of what the money could do!' isn't the right way to think about returned IFFs IMO: the legal processes takes too long & the sums returned are too small for this to be major source of investment finance. Attack IFFs to disrupt crime & corruption and prevent impunity.

the estimates are sketchy & comparison with aid is not meaningful. On the other 
crime & corruption are real & big: it is certainly right for the UK to act to prevent IFFs & return assets. Does it matter that these 
s don't mean much? (2/)
