AB This article analysed the relationship between illicit inancial lows (IFFs) andhuman development, as measured with the United Nations Human Development Index(HDI), using data for 56 low- and middle-income countries for the period 2002–2013. Themain result was that, in the cluster of the most corrupt countries, the total efect of anannual 10% point increase in the ratio of IFFs to total trade would imply a 21.7 pointsdecrease in the HDI level as a long-run efect. Although apparently small, this estimatedlong-run efect is three times greater than the annual average increase observed in the HDIover the period for the entire sample of countries.
