Goals / Remit
The Financial Transparency Coalition (FTC) is a global network of civil society, governments, and experts spanning five continents. We work to curtail illicit financial flows through the promotion of a transparent, accountable, and sustainable financial system that works for everyone.
The FTC was founded in 2009 under the name of the Task Force on Financial Integrity and Economic Development. Since its inception, the FTC and its members have successfully mobilized governments and citizens to take action against illicit financial flows, while advocating for a more transparent financial system that better serves for financing development. We use our wide reach and deep expertise to influence global norms and standards for financial transparency, and close loopholes in the global financial system.Main EU files targeted
