The leak was almost too big to fathom: 9 million documents, showing the inner workings at Mossack Fonseca, the World’s leading consultants if you want to hide financial assets in offshore tax havens. In order to process the information, The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) gathered it’s largest strike-force ever: more than 370 journalists from 78 different countries.
After more than eight months of collaborative investigation, the publication of the resulting stories started on April the 3rd. Since then, the findings from the Panama Papers have shaken governments from Iceland to China, as well as International sport stars and shady drug barons.
How do you organize such a massive journalistic undertaking? And how do you keep it secret?
Gräv16 is proud to present four ICIJ members, who will describe the Sisyphean process behind the disentangling of the Panama Papers.
