The Offshore Connections Of Latin American Presidents, Ministers And Business Leaders Revealed

NOVEMBER 21, 2017

FROM ICIJ'S PARTNERS


The Paradise Papers has been making waves across the world with a series of offshore revelations – including a number of major findings in Latin America.

Current and former presidents, ministers and business leaders are among the prominent citizens whose business dealings in tax and secrecy havens have been uncovered by ICIJ’s Latin American partners.

From Mexico to Argentina, 60 reporters in 13 countries across Latin America participated in the global investigation, which was based on a leak of 13.4 million documents obtained by the German newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung and shared with ICIJ.

These journalists exposed their countries’ political leaders and wealthy corporations in newspapers, websites and broadcasts across the region.
