The Panama Papers are a large number of leaked confidential documents relating to offshore tax avoidance structures and participating individuals and corporations.
A term used in foreign exchange rate quotation.


Consider the historical FX quote of 1 GBP = USD 1.4598 - 1.4602.
The Panama Papers were publicised by the ''Süddeutsche Zeitung'' in Germany in 2016.
The base currency is GBP.


The inversion of this FX quote means expressing the same price, but with the other currency as the base currency (USD here).


So 1 USD = GBP [1/1.4602] - [1/1.4598]
The documents were leaked from a law firm and corporate services provider headquartered in Panama.


1 USD = GBP 0.6848 - 0.6850.
