“Wyoming is advertising itself as the new onshore-offshore - it's going to get the clientele. It's like a wrapped gift inside a wrapped gift. The more wrapping you put on, the harder it is to figure out if there has been tax avoidance or evasion or even financial crime. Very few people know what you're doing.”

“The Pandora Papers must be a wake-up call for EU finance ministers. Unfortunately, a grotesque picture is emerging at the meeting of EU finance ministers: while journalists publish the biggest tax leak ever, EU finance ministers are weakening their list of tax havens. In view of flourishing tax havens, it is absurd that the finance ministers are shortening the tax haven list. The EU list of tax havens is hardly any good in the fight against tax evasion. The list is piecemeal, with a number of important tax havens missing. The PandoraPapers show that billionaires and powerful people use many tax havens that are not on the EU list. Two-thirds of the shell companies in the Pandora files are in the British Virgin Islands, which are missing from the EU tax haven list.”

“Few of the individuals had any role in turning the global tax system into an ATM for the super-rich. That honour goes to the professional enablers - banks, law firms and accountants - and the countries that facilitate them.”

“This is another shocking exposé of the oceans of money sloshing around the darkness of the world's tax havens that must prompt immediate action, as has long been promised. Bravo to the whistleblowers and journalists for shining a light into this secret parallel system of capital, one open only to those with fat amounts of money and the greed to hoard it all untaxed, and those who facilitate it. This is where our missing hospitals are. This is where the pay-packets sit of all the extra teachers and firefighters and public servants we need. Whenever a politician or business leader claims there is 'no money' to pay for climate damage and innovation, for more and better jobs, for a fair post-COVID recovery, for more overseas aid, they know where to look.”

“They are using those offshore accounts, those offshore trusts, to buy hundreds of millions of dollars of property in other countries, and to enrich their own families, at the expense of their citizens.”

“This [Pandora papers] is the Panama papers on steroids. It's broader, richer and has more detail. This is money [$11.3tn held offshore] that is being lost to treasuries around the world and money that could be used to recover from Covid. We're losing out because some people are gaining. It's as simple as that. It's a very simple transaction that's going on here.”
