Mossack Fonseca, a Panama-based law firm, specializes in Corporate Law, fiduciary services, investment advice, and international business. In April 2016, several media around the world revealed that they had a set of 11.5 million confidential documents from this firm, which had been obtained by an anonymous source with access to the firm's information systems and databases. According to the media, the documents showed how wealthy individuals used offshore companies to hide their assets from public scrutiny. The scandal had severely undermined the reputation of Mossack Fonseca's clients -including many high public officials and renowned celebrities.
