Illegal money flows from Africa near $90bn, UN study says

Africa is losing nearly $89-billion a year in illicit financial flows such as tax evasion and theft, amounting to more than it receives in development aid, a UN study showed on Monday. The estimate, in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development's (Unctad) 248-page report, is its most comprehensive to date for Africa. It shows an increasing trend over time and is higher than most previous estimates.
