orphan date October 2009 The WorldBank residual model , in economics , refers to a widely used model by economists to measure illicit financial flows . The data sources for this analysis are the large scale macroeconomic databases maintained by the International Monetary Fund and the WorldBank . In order to estimate illicit financial flows, this method measures a country s source of funds inflows of capital against its recorded use outflows and or expenditures of capital . Source of funds includes increases in net external indebtedness of the public sector and the net inflow of foreign direct investment. Use of funds includes the current account deficit that is financed by the capital account flows and additions to central bank reserves. An excess source of funds over the recorded use or expenditures points to a loss of unaccounted for capital, and, as such, indicates illicit financial outflow.

Klein has published and co authored several policy papers on the emerging markets and the effectiveness of foreign aid . He has regularly argued for enabling the private sector to bring about economic development rather than direct aid to the poorest nations. In a paper he co authored in 2005, Klein says Private financial flows such as foreign direct investment seem to encourage economic growth and relieve poverty in part because they create excellent incentives for transferring know how and in part because they are subject to a stern market test that ensures they are allocated and monitored carefully. For aid flows, not automatically subject to these disciplines, it is difficult to be as effective. This Note argues that aid agencies, by learning what makes private flows so effective, can bring better aid to the poorest. ref http rru.worldbank.org PublicPolicyJournal Summary.aspx?id 292 Aid Effectiveness Can Aid Agencies Be Smarter Than the Invisible Hand? ref Education and Personal Life Klein is a German national and joined the World Bank as a youth through the Young Professionals program.
