Making a killing: How tax scams are robbing poor countries of life-saving healthcare
Making a Killing analyses one part of the web of illicit financial flows, the ‘misinvoicing’ of international trade – a way of hiding the true value of imports and exports, shifting profits and evading taxes.
The figures are staggering. The sums being lost are comparable to the amounts currently missing from the health budgets of very poor countries – lost money that could boost total budgets and pay for desperately needed doctors, nurses, clinics, hospitals and medicines, and provide the basic minimum of decent healthcare to mothers and children.
