Abstract
This study describes and analyses the symbiotic relationship between corruption and money laundering and how they mutually reinforce an illicit financial flows ecosystem inclined towards draining resources needed for development. Relatedly, the study examines the nature of the corruption/money laundering interface and the various forms it can take. It proposes measures to enhance the effectiveness of the fight against corruption and money laundering. The study suggests that the current strategies to deal with corruption and money laundering have fallen short of expectations at least in part because these problems have been considered in isolation. By understanding intersections across corruption and money laundering with their potential to undermine peace and security, humanitarian work, development and achieving human rights, our knowledge on the money trail will be improved.
