Our report ‘The Money Drain’ was published in late 2019, before COVID-19 closed the world. But the findings and recommendations are more urgent now.
Vulnerable economies such as Zambia’s have been hardest hit. With interest payments on their government loans rising, the strain on healthcare to recover from the pandemic is also increasing.
Apart from unrealistic loan repayments, the flow of illicit funds from the Southern Africa region seriously impedes any progress on Sustainable Development Goals.
Our report calls on the UK government to lead the way to closing loop holes in international trade processes and other inflow systems. Join the call for Zambia’s debt to be more fairly restructured and some of the debt cancelled here.
