John Moscow, Jersey's Nemesis, Praises Cooperativeness
Tax-news.com

01 October 1999

Only two months after his stern criticism of Jersey at a conference on the island, John Moscow, New York Assistant District Attorney, praised Jersey's 'special willingness to co-operate in international investigations' into money-laundering and fraud. His recantation took place this week at the prestigious Cambridge International Crime Symposium. Participants at the Symposium included Richard Pratt, Financial Services Commissioner, and Anthony Edwards, who conducted the review of Britain's offshore financial centres. Mr Pratt noted the importance of being able to meet with key international regulators, and said that other jurisdictions could see that Jersey's privacy rules did not interfere with the Island's policy of co-operation in properly-conducted investigations.
