The Panama Papers Mapped


I'm certain that nosotros are going to run into a lot of interactive mapped visualizations of the information exposed yesteryear the Panama Papers over the side yesteryear side few months.

So far the 2 nearly pop interactive maps accept been uncomplicated visualizations of the publish of companies inward the Mossack Fonseca database from countries roughly the world. This Esri U.K. map, the Panama Papers: Mapped, uses scaled circle markers to present the publish of companies inward each province mentioned inward the database. You tin click on a country's marking to stance the publish of clients, beneficiaries, in addition to shareholders mentioned inward the papers from the selected country.

One affair that the map clearly reveals is the large business office that the 3 U.K. Crown dependencies of Jersey, Guernsey in addition to the Isle of Mann play inward offshore taxation evasion.

Brian Kilmartin's map (which I intend was the commencement map of the Panama Papers) is real similar to the Esri U.K. map. It too uses scaled markers to visualize the publish of companies inward each province mentioned inward the database. The Panama Papers: Where the Money is Hiding map too reveals the publish of clients, beneficiaries, in addition to shareholders mentioned inward each country.


Argentinian website La NaciĆ³n has created the exclusively province specific interactive map of the Panama Papers that I've seen hence far. Panama Papers: How Companies Operate Offshore uses Leaflet.js to explicate how Argentinian companies used Mossak Fonseca to motility coin into taxation havens.

The map uses numbered links to progress through the procedure that Argentinian companies accept used inward setting upwards offshore accounts through Mossack Fonseca. For many Argentinian businesses in addition to individuals the procedure seems to require using Uruguay's banking concern secrecy laws, hiring lawyers every bit intermediaries betwixt the companies in addition to Mossack Foneseca in addition to and hence opening hole-and-corner companies inward taxation havens similar Nevada, Seychelles, the Virgin Islands in addition to the Bahamas.
