Flawed: Cayman Finance Challenges Credibility Of Tax Justice Network’s Biannual Financial Secrecy Index

Used inaccurate methodology – the FSI report failed to follow its own methodology when calculating a Global Scale Weight (GSW) – the primary factor for determining a jurisdiction’s score -- for Cayman. TJN chose to use portfolio liabilities instead of publicly-available data for financial services exports. As a result, TJN’s estimate of GSW for Cayman was nearly 9 times what it should have been. If TJN had accurately applied their own methodology on just this point, Cayman would already drop down to 6th on the FSI.

Key Points: 
  • Cayman Finance has today released a new study that critically assesses the methodology and data used to assess the Cayman Islands in Tax Justice Networks (TJN) Financial Secrecy Index (FSI).
  • The Cayman Islands has demonstrated its commitment to the common fight for effective global transparency and international cooperation standards.
  • However, a report on transparency needs to be transparent itself and Tax Justice Networks 2020 Financial Secrecy Indexs failure to meet that standard compromises the credibility of its conclusions, said Jude Scott, the CEO of Cayman Finance.
  • Cayman Finance is the association of the financial services industry of the Cayman Islands, a premier global tax neutral financial hub efficiently connecting law abiding users and providers of investment capital and financing around the world.
