Abstract
It is estimated that each year between $20 billion and $40 billion are lost from the economies of developing countries as a result of political corruption. In Africa, corrupt practices, mostly by government officials, have facilitated illicit financial flows, which cost the continent more than $50 billion annually. This state of affairs raises fundamental questions about the management of senior government officials, also known as politically exposed persons (hereafter referred to as PEPs).
