      Also there was one recently from @mushtaqkhan100 & co @ACE_soas https://ace.soas.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/ACE-WorkingPaper010-IllicitFinancialFlows-181129-2.pdf … which concludes that finding indicators is going to be *hard* I'm not convinced they got to grips with the tax issues. .......Transfer pricing is tax compliance!pic.twitter.com/k59VXZTNSA

      Replying to @MForstater @mathislohaus and

      On that basis you could make a case that inflows of money laundered by criminals represent investment in a country just as much as official aid or investment. Not necessarily palatable but avoidance is legal unless and until successfully challenged in the courts.

      Replying to @iaincampbell07 @MForstater and

      It is a grave error to equate illicit financial flows with illegal financial flows. Some perfectly legal flows can be judged to be illicit by many people if they reflect an abuse of power in a world where power is very unequal. That is the debate that @MForstater evades.

      Replying to @mushtaqkhan100 @iaincampbell07 and

      I question whether it is meaningful to bracket flows which are (1) hidden/obscured from authorities and which *could* be stopped by enforcement if uncovered and (2) flows which as you say are "perfectly legal" but might be judged to be bad news by some people.

          These seem like different kinds of problems with different kinds of solution. On the tax front have become conflated under "IFFs" largely through the power of the big misinvoicing estimates , mistaken as representing "transfer pricing".
