We lose over $2 trillion dollars every year to illicit trade.
The illegal tobacco trade alone steals $50 billion dollars from the global economy.
Imagine what could be done with that amount of money.
More schools. Better Roads. Bigger hospitals.
But it’s not just about unpaid taxes or revenue stolen from businesses.
The social and environmental costs are also enormous.
Fake medicines kill 250,000 children each year.
The illegal wildlife trade threatens many species with extinction.
We must act now to stop illicit trade in all its forms.
