Abstract: Measuring the scale of money laundering is still in its infancy. This article presents a classification of economic concepts for assessing the volume of money laundering, traces their strengths and weaknesses, and provides the results of testing the authors’ modification of the method of the Australian economist J. Walker, based on official crime data in the country. The following estimates were proposed: 1) the probable proceeds of crime in Russia in 2023 and 2) the amount of money laundered for open use. These results can be used by law enforcement agencies as well as the Bank of Russia, Rosfinmonitoring and legislators to perfect measures on curtailing money laundering. Estimates can be improved on the basis of more detailed crime information in the country.
