Countering Trade-Based Money Laundering

Publication | January 2023

This flyer shows how ADB's Trade and Supply Chain Finance Program is driving a crackdown on trade-based money laundering (TBML) and training banks, regulators, and law enforcers to spot illicit transactions and transform trade transparency.

It details how TBML is used to disguise the proceeds of crime, the challenges in detecting cross-jurisdictional transactions, and explains why more detailed data is key to identifying money laundering patterns. Outlining a pilot program to improve reporting of suspicious transactions, it shows why combating TBML is crucial to improving international trade transparency and in turn, boosting economic growth and reducing poverty.
