Ruedi Elmer's allegations against his former employers Julius Baer in Cayman feature in the Guardian today.
Ruedi admits to having made mistakes in his campaign.
Clearly he's a whistleblower with data he should not possess.
But he's a man who has put principle ahead of personal gain: a bit like Paul Moore whose own action in doing so in the UK banking system has suddenly become very relevant.
I admire what Ruedi has done: even if some in Cayman never break the law he adds clear evidence to support that falling out of UBS day by day that shows that some banks seem to have been knowingly engaged in nefarious activity, which is what I have always said.
Thanks for reading this post.

I wonder if he will be charged with Tipping off after his Leak on wikileaks
ANd even the guardian states that some of the files purport to tax avoidance, so he willingfully passing on confidential evidence when there has been no wrong doing. Imagine if the details he is passing round contain your passport number, name address, bank details, etc. Would you want these splashed around to anyone he can get to listen to him.
As for any tax evaision, he was the head of the Cayman Branch it was him in charge of any evaision than took place!
