Illicit Financial Flows & Recovery Strategy
Stop and reverse the flows that drain development budgets.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Cabinet approved illicit financial flows on a slide; the fiscal analysis, the delivery plan and the incentive structure were all to follow. They never did. The political cost arrives on schedule: an announcement without delivery is a loan taken against the next election. You leave with the 100-day plan, the coalition map and the honest measurement that let your illicit financial flows agenda survive contact with reality.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Design illicit financial flows policy that survives implementation: evidence, incentives and delivery capability.
- Present illicit financial flows evidence at the cabinet table with brevity, honesty and stakes.
- Build illicit financial flows delivery and measurement systems that move outcomes, not activity.
- Commission illicit financial flows evaluation and read it critically — attribution, gaming and all.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Initiative That Worked in Three Districts
One district doubles immunisation coverage using data, supervision and modest incentives; neighbouring districts with the same illicit financial flows budget stagnate. The ministry wants to scale it before the next audit cycle.
Your decision: Decide what to scale, what to formalise, and what scaling will destroy if done clumsily.
IPAT Data Lab™
The illicit financial flows data at a water services regulator measures activity; nobody measures delivery.
Dataset: Synthetic administrative and survey data for a water services regulator — the two sources disagree.
Your task: Reconcile the sources, build the delivery dashboard, and defend it before a faculty "cabinet".
A illicit financial flows delivery dashboard that resists gaming.
Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
