Panama Papers

TOKYO, JAPAN - APRIL 26: (CHINA OUT, SOUTH KOREA OUT) Parts of the Panama Paper documents, containing documents of Mossack Fonseca, are seen at the Asahi Shimbun headquarters on April 26, 2016 in Tokyo, Japan. The Panama Papers, which revealed that government leaders or their relatives used tax havens to hide their assets from public scrutiny, were obtained by the German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung and shared with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ). The ICIJ is scrutinizing the documents along with partner media organizations around the world, including The Asahi Shimbun. The Asahi Shimbun, which has been scrutinizing Japan-related portions of the Panama Papers, contacted Japanese companies and citizens whose names crop up in the documents to ascertain their reasons for registering in tax havens.
