Paradise Papers data leak points finger at Manx company
The Isle of Man’s role in a major leak which sheds light on offshore investments is set to be revealed in more detail tomorrow evening (Monday).
Tonight’s first in a two-part BBC Panorama programme showed footage of the Island described as the ‘Island that changed the law to help tax dodgers’.
It also showed a journalist questioning the now retired chief executive of the former Insurance and Pensions Authority, David Vick.
In addition, it links a Manx company to a deal in which a Russian tycoon bought a stake in Everton Football Club.
However, allegations of wrongdoing have been strongly denied by the local firm’s legal team.
Monday night’s second part of the programme is expected to focus more on the Isle of Man amid allegations of VAT abuse.
