This is the SwissLeaks/Lagarde List data repository

This a handy repository for data dumps commonly known as Swiss Leaks or The Legarde List.

For more info see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagarde_list

For now all we have is the ICIJ data, but more can be added as desired.

All data will be attributed as best possible. Anonymous data will be marked as such and original licensing will be preserved.

New Submissions

If you wish to submit new data, please submit a pull request with a section added to the README containing the provenance of the data along with any caveats and the terms of license. Closed licenses are less likely to be accepted than open licenses.

If there is interest in a shared scripts directory for data manipulation, please open an issue and we will set up a separate repository.
