Core values

- **Addressing Illicit Financial Flows**: GFI works to curb illicit financial flows, which drain resources from sustainable development, worsen inequalities, and undermine governance. This directly addresses a significant societal need by ensuring resources are used for the benefit of the people and places from which they were generated[2].
- **Promoting Transparency and Accountability**: GFI advocates for beneficial ownership legislation, trade misinvoicing reforms, and the creation of multi-agency government teams to address tax evasion, transnational crime, and corruption. These efforts enhance transparency and accountability, which are crucial for trust in governance and the fulfillment of human rights obligations[2].
- **Supporting Sustainable Development Goals**: By pushing for the inclusion of illicit financial flows in the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals, GFI contributes to global efforts aimed at achieving sustainable development, gender equality, and human rights[2].
- **Empowering Civil Society and Communities**: GFI's work involves collaborating with civil society organizations, journalists, and local country partners to raise awareness and advocate for policy changes. This empowers communities to address corruption and promotes positive change[2].
