Everything you missed from the Paradise Papers
What a week it was. On Sunday, we released the first stories from our global investigation the Paradise Papers. All week we’ve published stories from the 13.4 million documents. You can find all our major stories below – so you won’t miss a thing.
We’ve also covered the reaction of the world that included:
· Arrest warrants being issued in Argentina
· U.S. Congress members calling for an investigation into offshore tax evasion
· Canadians listed in the documents will also be investigated
· U.S Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said he may give up his stake in a shipping company tied with Russia
Don’t forget, our work is not done yet and everything we do is funded by individual donations! You can support more cross-border investigations like this now. (And receive a Snax Haven sticker if you’d like!)
The ICIJ team.
P.S. We’re taking a well earned break this weekend, but will be back on Monday and throughout the week with more Paradise Papers news!
