HSBC Swiss leaks

Clinton Foundation donor
Leaked HSBC bank’s internal records show Caring used his tax-free Geneva account to transfer $1m into the New York-based foundation.
- Caring was legitimately permitted to keep his assets offshore by a hereditary quirk of UK tax law, under which he is registered as “non-domiciled”, courtesy of his Italian-American father. The HSBC records suggest Caring’s $1m donation was paid in return for former president Bill Clinton’s attendance at a lavish costume charity ball organised by Caring in St Petersburg, Russia. [1]
