The Malta Files show how the Mediterranean state works as a pirate base for tax avoidance inside the European Union. The investigative work argues that, whule profiting from the advantages of EU membership, Malta also welcomes large companies and wealthy private clients who try to dodge taxes in their home countries.

For months, the EIC network dug into hundreds of thousands of documents that show how Malta operates a tax system where companies pay the lowest tax on profits in the EU.
