Corruption, tax evasion, and the capture of natural-resource revenues undermine the rule of law, weaken the social fabric, erode citizens’ trust in institutions, fuel conflict and insecurity, and hamper job creation. They are not just illegal, but also immoral, because they keep poor people poor.
改革顽固的银行保密法也值得尝试。腐败、逃税和挪用自然资源收入破坏了法治精神，削弱了社会基础，侵蚀了公民对制度的信任，助长了冲突和不安全，阻碍了就业创造。它们不仅仅是非法的，也是不道德的，因为它们让穷人一直穷下去。
