Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Jim Asendio
Swiss banking giant UBS agreed this week to reveal the names of over four thousand Americans holding so-called ‘secret’ Swiss bank account totaling over 18 billion dollars. The deal is considered a major accomplishment in a U.S. effort to end off-shore tax evasion. We examine the legal and diplomatic wrangling that brought about the agreement, and explore what it means for U.S. taxpayers – even if they don’t hold a secret Swiss bank account.
Guests
- Tom Cardamone Managing Director, Global Financial Integrity
- Laura Saunders Reporter, Wall Street Journal
