Transnational organized crime undermines sustainable development and the achievement of targets across the agenda – including those fundamental to peace, security, the rule of law, growth, equity and domestic resource mobilization. It is multifaceted in nature, comprising a variety of criminal sectors, crimes and criminal behaviors and typologies. It can have not only a pernicious impact on rule of law and governance but also a deleterious impact on domestic resource mobilisation – including through money laundering, corruption and other economic crimes which impact on fiscal policies.
