Primary Evidence

"In 1998, the Economist counted 200-odd firms owned by Branson, plus joint ventures accounting for a similar volume of sales. The complex structure included family trusts based in the Channel Islands, as well as holding companies in the British Virgin Islands and sub-holding compa¬ nies in the United Kingdom. Branson acknowledged that the setup was “indirectly” designed to reduce taxes, while the company’s finance direc¬ tor said that the original purpose of locating companies in the British Vir¬ gin Islands was to keep information away from British Airways during a commercial dispute.23"
