The complete list of names published in the Panama Papers so far

11th April 2016 / Global

Here is the complete list of names published so far in the “Panama Papers. As each name was published forming an idea of the scale it didn’t take long for heads to roll. First up was Iceland’s Prime Minister Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson who after some resistance stepped down in response to the controversy. Next up was the UK’s Prime Minister David Cameron, who admitted a stake in his father’s offshore company – questions continue to emerge as the debate over politicians and their tax affairs continues to spread like a virus. But one has to ask, where are all the Americans? Not one mentioned by mainstream media outlets. Does this start to smell a bit fishy?

Don’t forget that the United States is considered something of a tax haven in its own right. Flexible entity and corporate structures, tax breaks and tax-favoured vehicles for capital gains result in a relatively low tax burden compared to most countries. This makes the USA an attractive place to do business, just like in the UK.

Lastly, don’t forget that many named may not have actually done anything wrong either legally or otherwise. For instance, some named in the Panama Papers live and work in countries where no tax is chargeable in the first place.

A wikipedia page has already emerged with the complete list, which no doubt will be updated with each new revelation.
