The anti-corruption prosecutor faces a hard work to keep citizens discovering buried stolen funds to the public treasury in tax havens. The reef research is due to the collaboration of a former HSBC systems technician, Hervé Falciani, with French and Spanish legal apparatus that has enabled pull strings. After the initial list of 1,500 names of Spanish delivered three years ago, which could be identified 659 suspected fraudsters, Spanish prosecutors now has another 2,500 accounts released by France recently.
The offensive against fraud deserves support. Spain and other European countries suffer from a serious problem of sovereign debt. European Council President Herman van Rompuy, pending the Heads of State and Government to discuss solutions at the upcoming summit. One billion euros per year escapes through the holes of tax fraud, according to EU estimates, which is unacceptable for companies subject to sharp cuts in spending and increases in taxes and fees generalized.
The internationalization of the problem also explains the protection that Spain has given Falciani, which drew 130,000 customers encrypted information of the Swiss branch of your bank. And that is not summarized in a series of names, but that means having computer codes that reveal the procedures used to hide funds alleged fraudsters, possibly extrapolated to other entities. Regardless of what specific motivations were Falciani to do so, it appears that the U.S. administration, concerned about the neglect of Swiss banks report cases of illegal money laundering, is behind the protection to be granted Spain the mole, who fears for his life and is awaiting extradition to Switzerland, a fact that should not occur because their cooperation is essential.

In the EU itself, the offense of Luxembourg has forced him to announce an easing of banking secrecy for 2015, although Austria still resists. The proposed automatic exchange of information between EU countries and improved control of data, driven by the European Commission, raises the issue of United Kingdom-under whose jurisdiction operated several tax havens and questions the relationship with Switzerland.
Neither this country nor offshore territories are directly to blame for the economy of much of Europe is exhausted, but to hide real owners or beneficiaries who refuse to pay their fair share of taxation. And that is not acceptable.
