FIC Director General Mary Chirwa says there is more that needs to be done to deal with the vice successfully.
Ms Chirwa is suggesting that a specific research be undertaken to establish the quantum of resources the country is losing through illicit financial flows.
Speaking in Chilanga when she opened a two day media training workshop on illicit financial flows organized by the Centre for Trade Policy and Development (CTPD),Ms Chirwa has also noted the need to look at tax administration in the country.
She says there is equally need to seal financial leakages in contracts and trade.
