Credit Suisse Accused of Continuing to Aid Wealthy Americans in Tax Evasion
TL;DR Summary
Credit Suisse has violated a 2014 plea agreement over allowing tax evasion by its clients, according to a two-year investigation by the US Senate Finance Committee. The bank helped a US businessman hide more than $220m in offshore accounts from the IRS and failed to disclose nearly $100m in secret offshore accounts belonging to a family of American taxpayers. Credit Suisse revealed that it had found 23 accounts each worth more than $20m that were not declared to tax authorities, many of them unveiled just days before the report was released.
