EU to add Bahamas, US Virgin Islands to tax blacklist: source

Brussels: The European Union next week will add Saint Kitts and Nevis, the Bahamas and US Virgin Islands to its new tax haven blacklist, according to European sources. But the blacklist will still number nine countries after finance ministers withdraw Bahrain, the Marshall Islands and Saint Lucia, according to an EU document. A European source told AFP the new list will be approved by the 28-nation bloc's finance ministers meeting in Brussels next Tuesday. (AFP)
