Matt Collin discusses the working paper, he co-authored, that looks at the effects of the UK's recent 2022 Economic Crime Act on dirty money flowing into the UK property market.
The Global Programme for Measuring Corruption ('GPMC') recently held a 'think-in' at their HQ in the International Anti-Corruption Academy, in Vienna, to examine one area that is particularly hard to measure – Illicit Financial Flows, or IFFs, and specifically the IFFs that arise from grand corruption.
The GPMC assembled a team of practitioners and academics to debate and discuss the topic over three days in Vienna.
At the think-in, economist Matt Collin discussed a working paper (he had co-authored) about the impact of the UK’s Economic Crime Act.
In this podcast he discusses the purpose of the paper in more detail, its interim findings, and the challenges of measuring new laws aimed at curbing illicit finanical flows.
