Description

In the last several decades, capitalism has created the means for trillions of dollars to move in secret and outside the control of regulatory institutions and law enforcement officials. Raymond Baker, the Founding President of Global Financial Integrity, and a longtime authority on financial crime and illicit financial flows, joins CIPE’s Anti-Corruption & Governance Center podcast to discuss his latest book,  “Invisible Trillions”. The book explores how democracy and capitalism have progressively decoupled over the last few decades. Listen now to hear Baker present some of his solutions to this problem, including reforming golden visa programs. This episode is hosted by Eric Hontz, Director of CIPE’s Center for Accountable Investment.
