Panama Papers: Abu Dhabi emir's vast London property empire revealed
Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan owns a list of luxury property in London longer than his name. And now we know exactly what and where that property is thanks to the Panama Papers. IBTimes UK headed to Mayfair to get a feel for just how much property Al-Nahyan owns in the city.
Al-Nahyan is emir of Abu Dhabi and president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the oil-rich Gulf state known for the lavish spending and ostentatious displays of wealth of its ruling class. He and his family are worth billions. The Forbes rich list puts his net worth at around £16bn ($23bn). Like any self-respecting member of the financial elite, he owns property in some of London's most exclusive postcodes — an empire of more than 250 properties worth in the billions, it is estimated.
...
Using data from Land Registry, which has a database of foreign companies which own property in London, it is possible to cross-reference the Panama Papers and find out which are owned by Al-Nayhan through his many offshore firms.

ISLAMABAD:
The world is all set to dive into the Pandora's box of offshore finances as a new investigation by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) into international finance and tax havens will be released to the public at 9:30pm on Sunday.
The ICIJ’s major investigation titled: “The Pandora Papers”, is said to be the result of 600 journalists in 117 countries studying for months roughly 11.9 million documents that leaked from the offshore environment. The countdown has begun as the names of several Pakistanis are said to be on the Pandora Papers.
...
Indeed, the United States is now ranked as the world's No. 2 tax haven by the Tax Justice Network, sheltering more money than any other except for the Cayman Islands.
