A 2008 World Bank report named the “Sunken Billions” has determined that the world’s fishing fleets are losing $50 billion USD annually due to depleted stocks and poor fishery management and supervision. The cumulative global loss of wealth over the past three decades is estimated at $2.2 trillion.

Approximately 30% of the world’s marine fish stocks are considered overexploited and an additional 50% are fully exploited; furthermore, 50% of global fish production originates from developing countries, which lack the proper infrastructure to effectively monitor their exclusive economic zones.
