Summary
This innovative project leverages trade discrepancy analysis through the enhanced, user-friendly TimberStats platform to detect timber trafficking and trade-based money laundering. By integrating cutting-edge data analysis and trend visualisation, it empowers law enforcement and financial institutions to identify red flags and target action. Scalable across the Latin America and Caribbean region, this model can be adapted to other countries, fostering stronger law enforcement response and transparency in the timber trade, and contributing to broader efforts against illicit financial flows.
