Paradise Papers reveal practices of aggressive tax avoidance by multinational corporations

We regularly invite companies to respond to allegations of human rights abuse in the public domain. However, while there is a clear link between tax evasion and human rights issues, due to the number of companies named and the prominence of the Paradise Papers (there is significant media attention and many companies have, or will, issue statements), Business & Human Rights Resource Centre will only be inviting companies to respond where the alleged link to serious human rights abuse is direct.

Feel free to get in touch with us with materials that contain direct human rights allegations against companies.

For full coverage and daily updates on the Paradise Papers see the dedicated pages on The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), the BBCThe GuardianThe New York TimesSüddeutsche Zeitung. Also see daily insights and responses by Global Witness.
