My wife worked at HSBC in the early 2000s, in Manila. When we met she was very proud of the bank's ethos and respectability. When the drugs and money laundering were revealed she never talked about the bank since; she was gutted because that bank was her life. She also worked at Chase Manhattan, another one shed rather not talk about.
Yeah, it's fascinating how even many of the employees are so brainwashed internally that they simply do not know what the corporations they work for are actually involved in.

Nicholas Shaxson comments how in the 60's and 70's many rock groups became "anti-establishment" by going offshore. I'm not convinced that being anti-establishment was a priority - it had more to do with not wanting to pay up to 90% tax, a point quite conveniently left out by Mr. Shaxson.
ehhhh I think that speaks for itself. The people who were not willing to pay that amount of tax were swimming in money and just wanted more of it. It is, for a reason, disgusting.
They pay %90 and figure out that they could pay nothing at all like all the other spivs. I dont blame them as they are using legal means to do this. Britain is the most corrupt nation on earth it seems.

The square mile of London, known as the city of London was never conquered by the Normans. It was a walled fortress with access to the sea, and as such the bankers could escape the power of the Norman kings. Concerned that the bankers would pose a threat from their money changing and money manipulation activities, the Norman kings introduced a national currency called Talley sticks which kept the city of London bankers at bay, for almost 700 years. But in 1700, the city of London finally got control of the national finances by establishing the private "Bank of England" which loaned all the kings money into existence as debt.......driving a rapid trade and colonization expansion of the British empire to feed the ever expanding pool of interest accruing debt based money pouring out of the private pound issuing banks loaning out credit. The next disaster to engulf the world was when the private central bank, the "Federal reserve" was established in the USA which gave the bankers complete control of the USA and by default, the world. These tax havens, these dodgy financial shelters are just one small aspect of the many crimes that banksters do on a daily basis.
@tryme4038 YES! Whenever someone makes a designation such as "The British" or "The Americans" or "The Germans" or "The Ukraines" - ALWAYS, ALWAYS ask, Which British - The British by blood or the British J's?

I recall the BCCI incident by reading the papers back when I was young - didn't understand much of it then. The idea that you used it as a example to build your thesis gave me much clarity to these offshore operation. It also lends some perspective when DJT advocated lowering the US corporate tax rate so that money domiciled offshore would come back home.🤠
Yes, from the very top. A Phamaceutical employee discovered that his company was triple billing the US government and decided to whistle blow. The investigators found over- billing of over $1 billion and took the company to court. The judge ordered that they pay a fine of $300 million. But did they not get away with over $700 million? The man lost his house, marriage, car, savings, and no other pharmaceutical company would hire him. Last I saw of him, he was returning from court, trying to get his whistle blow money, and a reporter stopped him to ask how it was going. Aw some we lose.
It’s interesting to find out so much information about financial interest and European central banking. The corporate corruption runs deep. Perhaps in the future, a video will be made doing a deep dive into the tangled relationship between financial institutions and intelligence agencies. I appreciate you sharing this video with us!
One million seconds of time is equivalent to 11.5 days, one billion seconds is 32 years, one trillion seconds is 31,687 years. It puts an absurd perspective on the size of those numbers.
Imagine quantifying that in minutes, hours or days... networth is calculated on how many days someone could live off the money they have... very interesting
People fail to realise .. the salt of Britain is the people .. the engineers.. the doctors the nurses .. the good mothers and fathers .. the emergency services.. the hard workers .. the good will and love for its fellow man ❤❤❤
This is not an attack on Britain. It’s an attack on the elites. Did you not watch the video. These are the very same people who owned slaves and profited, the very same people who launder month for drug lords but will lock up a poor kid for having a bit of weed.
People fail to realize that they pampered the aristocrats far too long. It was considered low life to work at all. Dandys with money and no job were looking down on working people. Hundreds of years they had cake, castle and champagne. Hard workers got breadcrumbs, water and a damp dark room for rent.
And whats your point? The salt of britain vote and empower these elites becuase they have no critical thinking and mainstream media owned by the elites manipulate them so easily
Para mais documentário como este. O que mais me chamou atenção foi a comparação da divida dos países africanos em relação aos dinheiros que estão escondidos offshore.
I remember in 1972 I was in the UK were a young Englishman my age then, thought the UK still owned the country were I was born! Unknowingly, my country gained independence from Britain in September 1964. My response was that his schooling perhaps failed him like the millions of Britons, the decline the UK had gone through all those years and still gone through up to the present day, because its leaders failed to face such reality, then and now.
So, you are from Malta? Interesting that a minority of the electorate voted in favor of the Constitutional proposal of 1964 which was used as the basis for declaring independence. Yes, a majority of those who actually voted, 54%, supported the proposal, but the party of Mabel Strickland, a staunch anti Independence campaigner, boycotted the vote. Seems that, even back in those days, political machinations with self interests, were to the fore. Would be interesting if a similar expose of Malta was undertaken to understand more of the current day dealings of more recent politicos, as seen from that recent event against the local journalist. All countries have their dark secrets.

I am surprised this documentary is only 4 months old. I watched this documentary a few years back. I think there are 2 of those documentaries. Is this a re-publishing? The flow of those funds are quite complex. It has been been building up for the last 60 years now. It will be quite challenging to de-stabilize this movement. In addition to the 5 points suggested, we need a mirror Disney type movie to explain this approach in a more accessible manner to a wider mass audience, i.e. Pirates of the Caribbean looking for treasure... in the real world.
Apparently ‘decentralizing’ results in Centralization ironically. Quite extraordinary really. Much thought went into this obviously. You must ‘tip your hat’ to where a ‘hat tip’ is due. WOW !!!
London City....not part of London ? Vatican City....not part of Rome ? Etc. It doesn't take a genius to realise the reasons for this, Or the obvious amount of power and corruption in these 'citys'. However, it does take dedicated journalism, investigations and documentaries like this to inform and make people aware of the issue in the first place. Well done !
Ask about NHS Trusts....see where the Govt places it’s money...using these Trusts to place uk tax payers money elsewhere....each patient is worth £X amount. The tax payer vis the govt pays money for each patient. The trust charges high fees for drugs equipment etc and that money pays their friends companies. Then the private business attached to each nhs trust that money is sent and saved. It’s ciphoned away from the hospital and placed in Trust abroad....

I am aged 84, retired chartered accountant, and worked for my final 10 years in the offshore world. Successive UK governments since WW2 have aided and abetted tax evasion via Jersey, Guernsey, Sark, Isle of Man, Cayman, Bermuda, Seychelles, Gibraltar etc, and to a lesser extent ent Cyprus and Malta, the French via Monaco and Switzerland, also Liechenstein etc etc. The only positive is many of those island states would have only tourism to support the local economy whereas off shore financial activities have provided welcome additional business activity. I know having visited most of these jurisdictions. Visit Luxembourg on a day which is a bank holiday in Germany and there is no available car parking, no available seats in restaurants etc!

Yeah but this Colonialism only works if you have TRAITORS in your country. It's not exactly an "external evil". So you should be veryyyyy careful when using terms. Most of this stuff is also fault of the native populations! Because they accept the status quo, then pretend like nothing is happening. As I use to say - just because you witnessed a crime and did nothing... doesn't make you innocent. You can be an accomplice! MOST people will choose comfort over discomfort you know...
What a wonderfull democracy ! The two most occidental countries are giving a good lesson to the world ! Democracy does not mean for them the power of the people. but the power over the people !
They knew about North and South America before they took it because explorers like Marco Polo and traders like the Chinese had visited before. Britain learned of the fertile land, gold ect.. and the fact the natives was friendly and their weapons were arrows and spears, easy to take over with guns and cannons. Having weapons of more destruction is how they always took over every where they landed all over the world.
Good documentary, if a bit sensational, Most of the British Empire was gained by treaty rather than conquest, and for commerce & trade rather than occupation hence this financial apparatus was always there. However, if you find this shocking, have a look at France’c control of the Central African France. Used by Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon, these countrys have no control over interest rates or financial policy and it means France can control the price they pay (or don’t pay) for minerals and commodities from Africa.
America pays for a useful commodity oil, with a few clicks on a keyboard computer in the Federal reserve building. Essentially getting their oil for nothing. The petrodollar and fractional reserve banking are the two greatest theft instruments in financial history.
Simply put .....only fools and those wishing to manipulate others believe in such claptrap......no proof, no evidence and no point in spouting absolute garbage.
It's such a wondrous comfort to know only Britain did this, European countries clean record sends us into bouts of envious giggling. Especially Switzerland.

The British Nation blindly trusts their leaders (not unique but in an age of information, you would expect people to ask fundamental questions) - The leaders serve Corporation's and the rich elite who seek to change legislation for the benefit of themselves by taking Power away from others who can intervene. Take Brexit as an example, the rich want to remove minimum working hours, workers rights, tax regulations so these can be influenced by lobbies whose clients are Corporations and Individual wealthy Businessmen which includes owners of land from British history. Every intelligent person who follows politics knew, Brexit would harm people but the people's naivety and, cunningness of the 'elite' convinced them that Brexit is Panacea to society s financial problems - Today: they pay more for energy (and no, Ukraine may have made things worse but not fundamental cause), price of fule is higher, food prices are higher, NHS investment has gone up and politically, UK is weaker globally with not a single significant economic trade deal.

Leaving him with roughly £1,283.89 to raise 6 kids and send resources and money back to his family in jamaica... he was a 'chippy' aka carpenter and helped rebuild post war britain including scotland yard, newham town hall and other buildingings in london... he used to tell me how much more valuable money was back then compared to 2010's now I understand exactly what he meant... I'm on twice as much money then he was on as a single woman and wouldn't dream of having kids whilst in this financial climate!

Bit late to the party but my goodness, some eye opening stuff ty for sharing
Litigation in the courts is phenomenally expensive, but HMRC will take Joe Bloggs the Plumber/Builder to court for doing a cash in hand job for a few hundred quid, laughable
Actually just 1 report to hmrc is enough to open an investigation into an individuals finances.

Finance is a creative art that’s all it is. In fact we can create wealth for every citizen using digital accounting software, or for any business interest, because the thing about wealth is we are just making it all up.
I recall the BCCI incident by reading the papers back when I was young - didn't understand much of it then.
The idea that you used it as a example to build your thesis gave me much clarity to these offshore operation.
It also lends some perspective when DJT advocated lowering the US corporate tax rate so that money domiciled offshore would come back home.🤠
Did Trump's law make money "come back home"? Surely zero tax is more tempting than any percentage tax?
They are all in it together, all on the same team
Yes, from the very top. A Phamaceutical employee discovered that his company was triple billing the US government and decided to whistle blow. The investigators found over- billing of over $1 billion and took the company to court. The judge ordered that they pay a fine of $300 million. But did they not get away with over $700 million? The man lost his house, marriage, car, savings, and no other pharmaceutical company would hire him. Last I saw of him, he was returning from court, trying to get his whistle blow money, and a reporter stopped him to ask how it was going. Aw some we lose.
It’s interesting to find out so much information about financial interest and European central banking. The corporate corruption runs deep. Perhaps in the future, a video will be made doing a deep dive into the tangled relationship between financial institutions and intelligence agencies. I appreciate you sharing this video with us!
Yeah. That would be interesting
Check out the book/podcast American Exception by Aaron Good. He covers BCCI and other intelligence influence in major world events and history.
One million seconds of time is equivalent to 11.5 days, one billion seconds is 32 years, one trillion seconds is 31,687 years. It puts an absurd perspective on the size of those numbers.
I'll take your word for that tehe
FUUUCK!!!
I think hongolloyd even took leap years into account 😅.
It does sort of put those zeros into perspective.
Imagine quantifying that in minutes, hours or days... networth is calculated on how many days someone could live off the money they have... very interesting
People fail to realise .. the salt of Britain is the people .. the engineers.. the doctors the nurses .. the good mothers and fathers .. the emergency services.. the hard workers .. the good will and love for its fellow man ❤❤❤
This is not an attack on Britain. It’s an attack on the elites. Did you not watch the video. These are the very same people who owned slaves and profited, the very same people who launder month for drug lords but will lock up a poor kid for having a bit of weed.
People fail to realize that they pampered the aristocrats far too long.
It was considered low life to work at all.
Dandys with money and no job were looking down on working people.
Hundreds of years they had cake, castle and champagne.
Hard workers got breadcrumbs, water and a damp dark room for rent.
And whats your point? The salt of britain vote and empower these elites becuase they have no critical thinking and mainstream media owned by the elites manipulate them so easily
Stopp it

I remember in 1972 I was in the UK were a young Englishman my age then, thought the UK still owned the country were I was born! Unknowingly, my country gained independence from Britain in September 1964. My response was that his schooling perhaps failed him like the millions of Britons, the decline the UK had gone through all those years and still gone through up to the present day, because its leaders failed to face such reality, then and now.
All countries are former colonies and all peoples are slaves (even the UK) everyone is mired in lies and deceit
So, you are from Malta? Interesting that a minority of the electorate voted in favor of the Constitutional proposal of 1964 which was used as the basis for declaring independence. Yes, a majority of those who actually voted, 54%, supported the proposal, but the party of Mabel Strickland, a staunch anti Independence campaigner, boycotted the vote. Seems that, even back in those days, political machinations with self interests, were to the fore. Would be interesting if a similar expose of Malta was undertaken to understand more of the current day dealings of more recent politicos, as seen from that recent event against the local journalist. All countries have their dark secrets.
@@dabhand6796 Ture, but Britain's dark secrets are darker in comparison to a tiny island's charades.
@@TerryBell1968 my schooling taught me that truth and freedom were the right way to achieve a collective aim and to under take the imaginable task of standing up to an tyrant or imperialistic parasite.

If I remember correctly, David Cameron and his father were hiding money in the Cayman Islands. Again, if l remember correctly, Cameron was claiming to stamp out offshore Tax Havens !! 🧐👻
It all came out in the Panama Papers... Cameron is a crook like the rest of his ilk...
Stamp out info about offshore. Yes, that's it.🎉
Let’s mark our own homework 😂

I am surprised this documentary is only 4 months old. I watched this documentary a few years back. I think there are 2 of those documentaries. Is this a re-publishing? The flow of those funds are quite complex. It has been been building up for the last 60 years now. It will be quite challenging to de-stabilize this movement. In addition to the 5 points suggested, we need a mirror Disney type movie to explain this approach in a more accessible manner to a wider mass audience, i.e. Pirates of the Caribbean looking for treasure... in the real world.
Chaps don't ask other chaps questions that chaps don't want to be asked.
It's a proper Eton mess.....
Fantastic documentary. Thank you!
Funny how the same act can be interpreted differently in view of how it benefits or deprives you.
Apparently ‘decentralizing’ results in Centralization ironically. Quite extraordinary really. Much thought went into this obviously. You must ‘tip your hat’ to where a ‘hat tip’ is due. WOW !!!
London City....not part of London ? Vatican City....not part of Rome ? Etc. It doesn't take a genius to realise the reasons for this, Or the obvious amount of power and corruption in these 'citys'. However, it does take dedicated journalism, investigations and documentaries like this to inform and make people aware of the issue in the first place.
Well done !

Ask about NHS Trusts....see where the Govt places it’s money...using these Trusts to place uk tax payers money elsewhere....each patient is worth £X amount. The tax payer vis the govt pays money for each patient. The trust charges high fees for drugs equipment etc and that money pays their friends companies. Then the private business attached to each nhs trust that money is sent and saved. It’s ciphoned away from the hospital and placed in Trust abroad....
These docs are great. Essential. But when will the many push back against the few to stop this шit
Pushing back takes money...lots of it
No use of this documentary 🎉 nothing worthwhile can be done to eradicate the system. Great info from the documentary. Thanks ..enjoyed ❤
Unimaginative😅
What a lovely world we live in..
BRICS+ will struggle to defeat this structure, but it looks like they will have the support of all non-G7 countries to weaken it. The coups in Africa is a clear signal that enough is enough
The revolution in Africa you meant?
What's going to happen when the world goes cashless, digital money could upset this process, will there be pushback.
@@ianbardon8581I'm afraid that chosen elites will be exempt from the worst aspects of CBDCs and the cashless societies. I can bet money on it and win. The elites will be the only benefactors of this CBDC cashless world. Here in the states Citibank has already changed the accounts of regular depositors to basically worthless tokens.
BRICS will not defeat it because it's controlled by the same oligarchy located in City of London.

The British never get called out on their crimes but love to point the finger at others
Long ugly fingers. Most money laundering is taking place in London.
'Brits'? The average brit has fk all. The elite own everything. When people stop blaming a whole country then we might get change.
The 'City Empire' like the 'British' Empire of old is not used to benefit ordinary Brits but rather stateless Globalists
This is the problem with humanity. Blame a whole group of people when you know full well its not the British. Its the elites that control everything.
The system that you are describing is the beast.

In Poland we don't have such problems because we don't have anything. We have 800 euros per month 1 liter of diesel for 2 euros and politicians who say Poland is an economic power and in the UK there are 1 million Poles 🙂 good movie

I'm sure Dave's offshore account was suitably boosted to "thank him" for his work.
I am aged 84, retired chartered accountant, and worked for my final 10 years in the offshore world. Successive UK governments since WW2 have aided and abetted tax evasion via Jersey, Guernsey, Sark, Isle of Man, Cayman, Bermuda, Seychelles, Gibraltar etc, and to a lesser extent ent Cyprus and Malta, the French via Monaco and Switzerland, also Liechenstein etc etc. The only positive is many of those island states would have only tourism to support the local economy whereas off shore financial activities have provided welcome additional business activity. I know having visited most of these jurisdictions. Visit Luxembourg on a day which is a bank holiday in Germany and there is no available car parking, no available seats in restaurants etc!
Absolutely fantastic documentary. Subscribed! Thanks.
I watched a " documentary" on " robbery vs wage theft" and the amounts and penalties that are at stake. This video and the video on WAGE THEFT kinda puts things in perspective.
Excellent report,thanks. ..we need more of such reports
Colonialism is still alive and kicking 😢
Yeah they are STILL PLAYING CHESS in moving finances, now Bitcoins,
Yeah shit con coin
Yep and it's thanks to the USA!
Yeah but this Colonialism only works if you have TRAITORS in your country. It's not exactly an "external evil". So you should be veryyyyy careful when using terms. Most of this stuff is also fault of the native populations! Because they accept the status quo, then pretend like nothing is happening. As I use to say - just because you witnessed a crime and did nothing... doesn't make you innocent. You can be an accomplice! MOST people will choose comfort over discomfort you know...
And doing very well.
This is Insidious Truth!
What a wonderfull democracy ! The two most occidental countries are giving a good lesson to the world ! Democracy does not mean for them the power of the people. but the power over the people !
And then wondering why other cultures don't take democracy and human rights seriously.
They knew about North and South America before they took it because explorers like Marco Polo and traders like the Chinese had visited before. Britain learned of the fertile land, gold ect.. and the fact the natives was friendly and their weapons were arrows and spears, easy to take over with guns and cannons. Having weapons of more destruction is how they always took over every where they landed all over the world.
Beautiful story of the new Babylon
Good documentary, if a bit sensational, Most of the British Empire was gained by treaty rather than conquest, and for commerce & trade rather than occupation hence this financial apparatus was always there.
However, if you find this shocking, have a look at France’c control of the Central African France. Used by Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, and Gabon, these countrys have no control over interest rates or financial policy and it means France can control the price they pay (or don’t pay) for minerals and commodities from Africa.
America pays for a useful commodity oil, with a few clicks on a keyboard computer in the Federal reserve building. Essentially getting their oil for nothing. The petrodollar and fractional reserve banking are the two greatest theft instruments in financial history.
That is an illusion, but if it makes you feel better, it is fine with me.
Thank you for this brilliant film exposing the real scum at the top.
The sinister music in the background is a very appropriate choice for the topic of this video.

I saw this documentary when we were voting on Brexit.
The British Nation blindly trusts their leaders (not unique but in an age of information, you would expect people to ask fundamental questions) - The leaders serve Corporation's and the rich elite who seek to change legislation for the benefit of themselves by taking Power away from others who can intervene. Take Brexit as an example, the rich want to remove minimum working hours, workers rights, tax regulations so these can be influenced by lobbies whose clients are Corporations and Individual wealthy Businessmen which includes owners of land from British history. Every intelligent person who follows politics knew, Brexit would harm people but the people's naivety and, cunningness of the 'elite' convinced them that Brexit is Panacea to society s financial problems - Today: they pay more for energy (and no, Ukraine may have made things worse but not fundamental cause), price of fule is higher, food prices are higher, NHS investment has gone up and politically, UK is weaker globally with not a single significant economic trade deal.
The 'elite' of this nation run it in Criminal ways but, project the World a second face.

Wait, in the UK there are mental health hospitals called NHS trusts. They are run by both public and private interests. Is the name an indicator of the ownership of such an organisation?
Yes. The nhs is a money laundering and savings scheme....

A welder in South Wales during the 1970's earned £750 per week. With inflation, a similar skilled tradesman should be on about £3,000 per week today. Ever wondered where all the money went. Grand Theft Currency
Wow thanks for sharing this comment... in 1963- early 70s my grandad was able to raise 6 children and pay a mortgage earning £15 per week... after reading your comment I calculated he was on the equvalent of roughly £1604.07 spending £320.81 a month on mortgate. Leaving him with roughly £1,283.89 to raise 6 kids and send resources and money back to his family in jamaica... he was a 'chippy' aka carpenter and helped rebuild post war britain including scotland yard, newham town hall and other buildingings in london... he used to tell me how much more valuable money was back then compared to 2010's now I understand exactly what he meant... I'm on twice as much money then he was on as a single woman and wouldn't dream of having kids whilst in this financial climate!
