Follow the Money: Countering Illicit Finance in Latin America

The Quincy Institute has published a piece arguing that US policy toward Latin America should focus on tracking and disrupting illicit finance, from drug-trafficking revenues to corruption networks, rather than relying solely on interdiction or military approaches. It frames financial tools as a more effective way to weaken criminal organisations and shore up governance across the region.
