The database consists of more than 200,000 companies, trusts, foundations, and funds incorporated in countries around the world and countless names of the wealthy, and often famous people who shelter their cash there.
The findings of the so-called Panama Papers investigation were first unveiled at the beginning of April.
Over 11 million documents held by the Panama-based law firm Mossack Fonseca had been leaked to the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung. The paper shared the information with the ICIJ, which is made up of 107 media organizations in 78 countries.
It should be noted that the ICIJ doesn't allege any wrongdoing against any of the people or firms named, saying in a statement on its website along with the documents: "There are legitimate uses for offshore companies and trusts. We do not intend to suggest or imply that any persons, companies or other entities included in the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database have broken the law or otherwise acted improperly."
Business Insider scanned the database for newsworthy or prominent individuals or organizations in the worlds of finance, politics, technology, and others. Here are some of the most interesting UK-based or affiliated people we've found so far.
