Abstract: In this paper we analyze the international transport margins based on the data from World Input-Output Tables. First, we discuss the differences between national and international input-output tables. Then we analyze the share of international transport margins on total imports. Finally, we discuss the possibilities to make use of World Input-output tables for an analysis of illicit capital flows in the world economy. We conclude that we should be skeptical with respect to estimation of illicit capital flows from World Input-Output Tables but we suggest using World Input-Output Tables for an estimation of potential consequences of illicit capital flows obtained from other sources on real economy.
