	One of the big virtues of the Fairtrade Labelling System is the generation of financial resources through trade that help producer organisations and workers to produce and live in a sustainable way. The Trade Auditing System of FLO makes sure that the certified producer organisations actually receive the revenues for their products sold under the Fairtrade Label: • The Fairtrade Minimum Price, that covers the cost of sustainable production. • The Fairtrade Premium, that allows investments in the social and economical development of the producer organisations. Details are fixed in the Fairtrade Standards. All FLO registered traders are obliged to regularly report their sales figures to FLO-Cert. The auditing of the trade chain from the producer organisations in the South to the Licensees in the North is done by a combination of desk-top checking of the reports, on-site spot checks at traders and external audits.
