No commercial vessel should be allowed to call a port without publishing its beneficial ownership details on the public record. Hidden vessel ownership, and beneficial ownership not only enables the Russian "ghost fleet", but also IUU fishing and forced labour on fishing and merchant vessels.

@jasonward-cictar.bsky.social from @cictar.bsky.social: "There is nothing ethical or fair about Starbucks Swiss Scheme. This appears to be tax dodging plain and simple and steals money needed to fund public services, including those needed by its underpaid US baristas to make ends meet." #IFFs

When questioned about the mark-up being raised from 3% to 18% in 2011, Starbucks claimed that the cost increase was justified by its ‘ethical’ sourcing program but provided no credible evidence of any increase in costs of running the program, let alone a 15% increase. #transferpricing

Financial Transparency Coalition @fintrco.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

The report then evidences this tax-related Illicit Financial Flow (IFF), and estimates least $1.3 billion has been diverted via Starbucks’ Swiss subsidiary over the last decade in what they call an instance of major tax avoidance. #taxjustice #taxabuses #taxavoidance #tradeintegrity

Land transparency is a key part of wider asset transparency, important to track down Illicit Financial Flows from illicit activity like illegal logging, crops grown on illegal land, kleptocrats and tax dodgers hiding behind secretive land ownership.

The Ocean Economy also needs to be built with transparency, integrity, and tax justice, and tackling all Illicit Financial Flows (IFFs) that are associated with it. This is why vessel transparency and beneficial ownership transparency on publicly accessible registries is important to tackle abuses.

I know it's pointless to say this, but the Beneficial Ownership reporting is really simple to do. The only way it's an "absolute disaster" or "economic menace" is if you are fully aware that writing down your owners will produce criminal liability.

Ending enforcement of the US Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) reporting is a win for the world of tax dodging, kleptocrats, oligarchs, financial secrecy linked to illegal fishing and logging, illegal wildlife trade, minerals and fossil fuels. Other countries need to redouble their efforts.
