John Christensen

John Christensen is an economist and researcher known for analyzing global financial systems, offshore finance, and tax havens. He co-founded the Institute of Development Studies and the Tax Justice Network, organizations dedicated to promoting transparency and fairness in international finance. Christensen's work highlights how certain jurisdictions provide secrecy and favorable laws that enable tax avoidance and financial secrecy, often at the expense of public resources in other countries. His research aims to illuminate these practices, encouraging policies that promote economic justice and reduce illicit financial flows.
