The Need for Principled-centered Approach to Leadership in Fighting Trade-based Financial Crime : Make Trade-based Financial Crime Prevention Works for African Union Border Programme

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - FOREWORDAfrica stands at a defining moment in its history. The drive toward regional integration, economic transformation, and sustainable development has placed borders at the center of continental progress. Through initiatives such as the African Union Border Programme (AUBP) and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), borders are no longer viewed merely as lines of separation, but as bridges of opportunity, cooperation, and shared prosperity.Yet, as borders open to facilitate legitimate trade and movement, they also become vulnerable to abuse. Trade-based financial crime has emerged as one of the most serious and least visible threats to Africa's economic sovereignty. It drains public revenue, weakens institutions, fuels corruption, and undermines trust in governance systems. Its impact is profound, yet its mechanisms are often hidden within otherwise lawful trade activities.This book is written against that reality.What distinguishes this work is its central argument: that the fight against trade-based financial crime cannot be won through regulations, technology, or enforcement alone. At its core, this is a leadership challenge. Where power is exercised without principle, systems fail. Where authority is divorced from integrity, borders become gateways for illicit activity rather than instruments of development.Professor Paul Allieu Kamara brings to this subject a rare combination of leadership scholarship, practical experience, and ethical clarity. His emphasis on a principled-centered approach to leadership reframes financial crime prevention as a human and institutional development issue, not merely a compliance exercise. The insight that power must be learned, guided, and restrained by values is particularly relevant in border environments, where discretion is high and oversight is often limited.This book speaks directly to policymakers, border officials, customs authorities, financial crime practitioners, and development partners across Africa.
