The
world’s fastest growing economic activity is unfortunately one that is having a
detrimental impact on trade, employment, innovation, security and the health of
people living across the length and breadth of the world. This activity is
called ‘illicit trade’ and its tentacles have spread so far, that over the last
ten years, it has grown from $650 billion to nearly $3 trillion. This illegal
business operation represents 10 per cent of the global trade and has been
termed as crime of the 21st century by the Federal Bureau of Investigation
(FBI).
