Abstract
Se ha analizado para toda Europa la red espacial de conexiones societarias internacionales filtradas en los denominados papeles de Panamá. Esto ha permitido conocer la morfología espacial de la estructura financiera de evasión de capital desde Europa a paraísos fiscales de todo el mundo. También permite elaborar una cartografía de flujos de capital financiero en Europa que identifica sus puntos de origen, tránsito y destino.
El resultado revela la existencia de diferentes espacios financieros en el interior del continente, así como territorios fuera de Europa que se encuentran bajo el control geopolítico de la UE, y que constituyen nodos críticos como destino final del capital. El más importante con diferencia pertenece a los restos del imperio colonial inglés. Se trata de un espacio utilizado por Reino Unido para establecer una red financiera mundial que tiene su epicentro en la City y su destino final en las Islas Vírgenes Británicas.
The spatial network of international corporate connections filtered in the so-called Panama papers has been analysed for the whole of Europe. This has allowed us to know the spatial morphology of the financial structure of capital evasion from Europe to tax havens around the world. It also makes it possible to map financial capital flows in Europe, identifying their points of origin, transit and destination. The result reveals the existence of different financial spaces within the continent, as well as territories outside Europe that are under the geopolitical control of the EU, and which constitute critical nodes as the final destination of capital. The most important by far belongs to the remains of the English colonial empire. It is a space used by the United Kingdom to establish a global financial network with its epicentre in the City and its final destination in the British Virgin Islands.
