International Coalition Against Illicit Economies

In 2022, icaie launched icaie labs as a market intelligence innovation hub to remove the barriers to effective law enforcement and to identify criminal activity and bring evidence of wrongdoing to the attention of appropriate governmental and police authorities. Through icaie labs, we lead a team of highly skilled national security service providers and product vendors across the globe to examine data and open-sourced information and map Illicit networks. Icaie published numerous policy briefs on issues of particular interest to our members on countering Illicit trade including counterfeits and trade-based money laundering in free trade zones in the americas and specific Illicit markets penetrated by transnational criminal groups. Icaie participated in numerous meetings and conferences internationally and provided congressional testimonies to several committees in the u.s. senate and house of representatives. Icaie engaged key u.s. law enforcement agencies and policy offices across the u.s. government on the harms of Illicit Economies.
