Last Sunday, we @SZ @OCCRP published the #SuisseSecrets about the dubious customers & the lack of due diligence at Credit Suisse. The bank responded with a press statement - as it can be misleading, but is nevertheless picked up by many journalists, it is time for some context👇 The bank stated "The matters presented are predominantly historical, in some cases dating back as far as the 1940s". Fact is: more than two-thirds of the #SuisseSecret-accounts were opened since 2000 & several customers confirmed that their accounts are still open in 2022 (!)

When @b_obermayer & me @sz received the #panamapapers, we knew one day an even bigger leak would come.

Here it is: @ICIJorg #PandoraPapers.

It shows what we knew all along: #MossackFonseca was not one bad apple. The whole system is rotten.

So let’s talk about it. 1/5 But first: the #pandorapapers originate from 14 offshore providers, all around the world. There are some differences, but all in all it’s more or less the same: Their business is: selling secrecy for the superrich, the criminals & the crooks.

This is their biggest asset. 2/5
