Brooke Harrington: How can leaks like the Pandora Papers be effective
(FILES) This file photo taken on April 25, 2019 shows an aerial view of the financial centre of Panama City. - More than a dozen heads of state and government have amassed millions in secret offshore assets, according to an investigation published on Oct. 3, 2021 by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ). The so-called "Pandora Papers" investigation is based on the leak of some 11.9 million documents drawn from 14 financial services companies in countries including the British Virgin Islands, Panama, Belize, Cyprus, the United Arab Emirates, Singapore and Switzerland. Panama fears the new publication could again taint its reputation, which was seriously damaged by the "Panama Papers" scandal, according to a government letter released by local media.
