In early 2015, an anonymous source using the pseudonym “John Doe” made the massive documents, now known as Panama Papers, available in batches to German newspaper, Süddeutsche Zeitung.
The information documents transactions as far back as the 1970s and eventually totaled 2.6 terabytes of data.
The newspaper, according to Wikipedia, enlisted the help of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, which distributed the documents for investigation and analysis to some 400 journalists at 107 media organizations in 76 countries.
The first news reports based on the papers, and 149 of the documents themselves, were published on April 3, 2016 and the ICIJ plans to publish a full list of companies involved in early May 2016.
The Panama Papers are a leaked set of 11.5 million confidential documents that provide detailed information about more than 214,000 offshore companies listed by the Panamanian corporate service provider Mossack Fonseca, including the identities of shareholders and directors of the companies.
Panama papers show how wealthy individuals, including public officials, hid their assets from public scrutiny.
The British Virgin Islands was home to half of the companies exposed and Hong Kong contained the most affiliated banks, law firms and middlemen.
A few days ago, Voicehindi.com, published a complete list of people named in Panama papers.
The full list is reproduced below:
