The Post and scores of other news organizations collaborated in the effort, conceived and organized by @ICIJorg, to illuminate the workings of this secret world on a scale never before possible.
The #PandoraPapers is an investigation based on more than 11.9 million documents.
It exposes more than twice as many account holders and twice as many public officials as the Panama Papers did. https://t.co/B7qrGmlS9m
The files detail the offshore activities of more than 29,000 accounts.
