Christian Aid's @TobyQuantrill1 & @Bakhunin have done a review of the Capital Economics BVI report https://mediacentre.christianaid.org.uk/christian-aid-challenges-lobbying-for-tax-haven-secrecy/ …pic.twitter.com/wfTdZz4Xod
Also worth reading Martin Kenney @MKSolicitors 's blog at @FCPA on BVI's new BOSS beneficial ownership register http://www.fcpablog.com/blog/2018/2/14/martin-kenney-in-the-bvi-theres-confidentiality-but-not-secr.html … (and the conversation between them)
Much of the debate about public registers of beneficial ownership I think comes down to this point of Martin's - if X% of people doing biz via BVI (or wherever) are legit and tax compliant, is it reasonable to allow them privacy, or should they be forced to be searchable onlinepic.twitter.com/vZiJV8eKCQ
For some people the answer is 'no' on principle - the quid pro quo for using an honest person using a Ltd company vehicle should be public identification (even if this doesn't stop, but only makes life a little harder for those who are intent on committing crime) .
For others it depends on how effective the mechanism is in catching crooks and deterring opportunistic tax evaders - so the question of what % of $s is honest money vs dodgy money matters for thinking about proportionality
My guess is the situation may be somewhere between @Bakhunin @TobyQuantrill1 's worst fears and @CapEconGlobal @BVIFinance rosy picture - I should take a closer look!
