It is hard to overstate the significance of the Panama Papers investigation, which has so far cost the seat of at least one prime minister (that of Iceland) and triggered investigations of many other public figures across the globe.

It involves one of the biggest data leaks in history, of some 11.5 million documents related to decades of potentially questionable offshore financial activities by wealthy international clients of the Panama-based law firm Mossack Fonseca & Co.
