The docs originated from the legal firm Appleby, the corporate services providers Estera and Asiaciti Trust, and business registries in 19 tax jurisdictions. They contain the names of more than 120,000 people & companies. The trove of 13.4 million records also exposed ties between Russia & Trump.

In all, more than a dozen Trump first term advisers, Cabinet members and major donors appear in the leaked offshore data. Included in that data is 500 pages detailing the activities of an Epstein offshore vehicle in the Bermuda-founded offshore services provider Appleby.

The documents show that by the mid-2000s Epstein’s firm had started working with Appleby. From at least 2000 to 2007, Epstein chaired a company registered in Bermuda called Liquid Funding Ltd. The entity was partially owned by the investment bank Bear Stearns, where Epstein had worked.
