Ein paar Eindrücke:🇩🇪 ist laut @FinclSecrecyInd ein Geldwäscheparadies und erschwert die Durchsetzung von Sanktionen gg russische Vermögen. Verknüpfung von Transparenz-, Handels- und Anzeigeregister, wie in 🇦🇹, braucht es auch in 🇩🇪. Noch besser: Ein globales Vermögensregister.

"These rankings show how corrupt actors are weaponizing our financial system against democracy here and abroad," - @Ianpgary on @TaxJusticeNet rankings showing the US as the country with the *most* financial secrecy.

"It's no longer time for the US to pretend that it can enact & create a less corrupt global environment & foster democracy without looking internally & cleaning up its own house & catching up with global norms. It’s time to walk the talk”~ @RyanGurule_FACT https://t.co/4UhNAOmWbq

G7 Finance Ministers meet tomorrow. @TaxJusticeNet is calling on the G7 to commit to a Global Asset Registry of all high-value wealth & assets, & real beneficial owners to:
- bring the rule of law to trillions hidden offshore.
- measure, understand & address global #inequality

Decades of courting finance from dictators, tax evaders and criminals with eyes-wide-shut regulations are now making it nearly impossible for governments to track down the billions held by sanctioned Russian oligarchs. Here's how to cut through the secrecy https://t.co/oZvmnbkBBr

[Naomi Fowler naomifowler.bsky.social @Naomi_Fowler]

This is jaw droppingly amusing from so many angles, where to start? The EU blacklist was always a joke & @TaxJusticeNet's Financial Secrecy Index @FinclSecrecyInd consistently put Switzerland at the top of the roll of dishonour - adopt that? #SuisseSecrets https://t.co/3T9LFGga0C

"There’s a good argument that, right now, the best place to hide and launder ill-gotten gains is actually the United States"
@SecYellen said today. Amazing admission by the largest economy in the world. But they've been saying this for a while at @TaxJusticeNet .Time to act now!
