Snagged from the
Vanity Fair sizzler cited in an earlier post:
For nearly 15 years, Republican presidential candidate
Mitt Romney’s financial portfolio has included an offshore company that
remained invisible to voters as his political star rose.
Based in
Bermuda, Sankaty High Yield Asset Investors Ltd. was not listed on any
of Romney’s state or federal financial reports. The company is among
several Romney holdings that have not been fully disclosed, including
one that recently posted a $1.9 million earning — suggesting he could be
wealthier than the nearly $250 million estimated by his campaign.
The omissions were permitted by state and federal authorities
overseeing Romney’s ethics filings, and he has never been cited for
failing to disclose information about his money. But Romney’s limited
disclosures deprive the public of ... a clear understanding of how his assets are handled and taxed,
according to experts in private equity, tax and campaign finance law.
Oh, that
Mormon honesty.
