Se mide el impacto tomando en consideración la evolución de la cooperación entre las Unidades a través de sus reportes anuales y documentos oficiales, aunado al Informe Anual del Grupo Egmont de Unidades de Inteligencia Financiera. Se analizan los procesos de intercambio de información entre ambas instituciones y evalúa su vinculación en la construcción de la inteligencia requerida para articular órdenes judiciales por lavado de dinero (LD). Se concluye que esta relación ha sido benéfica para ambos países, ya que existen casos exitosos de detención de criminales por blanqueo de capitales gracias al trabajo en conjunto de las Unidades.
