Can this figure and @gabriel_zucman startling estimate of UHNW offshore tax evasion both be right? If they are, where has all the money gone?https://twitter.com/AnzhelaYC/status/1136904582867673088 …

Zucman’s estimate is based upon 90% of offshore accounts (cash and securities) being undisclosed. That is incompatible with only a 25% decline in offshore accounts. Something is wrong here.
Yes I see what you mean. Which is based on that one Swiss study. http://www.piketty.pse.ens.fr/files/Rousille2015.pdf …. So for Zucman's 80% undeclared assumption to hold true on average across cash and securities. 95% of income from securities held offshore must be tax evading.
