So, David. Apols for getting an old story. I suggest others on this timeline start a new thread, if they want to continue.pic.twitter.com/tpNE1j5QIB

I’ve been through Hansard and, whilst numerous figures were mentioned, none were estimates of revenue yields from OT BO disclosure....

Replying to @DanNeidle @dslesperance and
That’s unsurprising given the difficulty of making such an estimate, given it depends (amongst other things) on the % of non-CRS assets and the % of BO evaders who stay put...

For what it’s worth, I think BO disclosure is the right thing to do, although I’m uncomfortable with forcing it on the OTs. It would be better, and fairer, if this was a universal standard...

However that cause is positively hindered by claiming benefits for BO disclosure which will almost certainly not arise. I hope Alex and Nick would agree the £10bn figure is both wrong and unhelpful.

Seems high, but I haven't investigated recently so I don't know. Full BO disclosure would deliver a lot more than current piecemeal proposals. (And that awful word 'unhelpful'. Unhelpful for whom?)

Unhelpful to people who want to understand the potential impact of the policy <or at least thats what I read>
