Panama papers - afternoon course NOW SOLD OUT

---

Location: Upper Hall, Loch Promenade Church, Douglas.

The recent release of the Panama Papers has sent shockwaves through the global financial services industry. This highly interactive seminar will review cases arising from the scandal and review key lessons learnt for IOM  financial services businesses. Delivered by Jo French and Chris Usher from JIBS, this session will help you begin to appreciate how potentially damaging this incendiary leak could be and to enable you to be prepared. We are conscious of a lot of sensationalised journalism so far and would seek to counter this with a more balanced and reasoned discussion on the issues raised. Contrary to a lot of commentary in this space there will be an element of support for offshore and practical advice in terms of managing the perceived risks.

SESSION CONTENT

- What do the papers really reveal?

- Review of several cases of alleged nefarious activity
