At least half-a-dozen cranes dot its picturesque, oceanfront skyline, teeming with glass towers.<\/p>\n<p>At one site, real estate broker Kent Davis steps into a construction elevator in a nearly completed 30-floor apartment building. Seventy percent of the apartments have already been sold.<\/p>\n<p>Panama is on the rise, too. Its economy, expected to grow by 6 percent this year, is the bright spot in Latin America. The Panama Canal, which the country assumed control of in 2000, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2016-03-22\/panama-canal-expansion-seen-open-by-july-after-years-of-setbacks\">saw record traffic last year<\/a> and shipments are expected only to grow after its expansion is opened next month.<\/p>\n<p>But Davis says the bad press brought on by the Panama Papers has been a punch to the country&#8217;s gut, hurting more than just the shady operators in the offshore industry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Now they are paying a price,&#8221; he says, &#8220;and unfortunately, the whole country is going to suffer for a while.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Panama Papers exposed the global business of hiding the riches of the world&#8217;s famous and infamous. But for many in Panama, those papers \u2014 and the misdeeds of a handful of the country&#8217;s lawyers \u2014 have unfairly damaged the country&#8217;s reputation. The global shaming comes just as Panama was winning international recognition for cleaning up its act.<\/p>\n<p>Panama was blindsided, says Felipe Chapman, an economist at Indesa, a local investment research firm. He says the Panama Papers give a mistaken impression that the world&#8217;s rich opened all their shady companies here.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Most of those corporations were not even incorporated in Panama,&#8221; he notes. &#8220;They were incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, in the Bahamas, in Grand Cayman.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The vast majority of their money isn&#8217;t in Panamanian banks, either, he says. Compared to the world&#8217;s other fiscal havens, Panama has made great strides to clean up its offshore industry, he adds.<\/p>\n<p>Two years ago, lawmakers passed a series of laws cracking down on money laundering. The steps got Panama <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.wsj.com\/riskandcompliance\/2016\/02\/19\/algeria-angola-panama-removed-from-fatf-blacklist\/\">removed in February from an international list<\/a> of bad actors. That prompted the U.S. ambassador to say the de-listing would make 2016 Panama&#8217;s year of redemption.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, two months later, the Panama Papers were leaked.<\/p>\n<p>Many countries that were embarrassed by the leak, including France, singled the country out for wrongdoing. The Organization of Cooperation and Development (OECD), representing the world&#8217;s wealthier countries, struck, too, insisting that Panama&#8217;s leaders sign long-stalled tax information exchange agreements.<\/p>\n<p>Panamanians bristled. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-latin-america-27280811\">President Juan Carlos Varela<\/a> went on the defensive.<\/p>\n<p>Panama&#8217;s success &#8220;does not depend on irregular flows of money into our financial system,&#8221; Varela told a press conference last week, inaugurating a panel of experts to boost the country&#8217;s financial transparency. He made a similar speech Tuesday to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.as-coa.org\/articles\/remarks-president-panama-juan-carlos-varela-46th-annual-washington-conference-americas\">Washington Conference on the Americas<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our success story is based on the hard work of the Panamanian people: a noble people and peace-loving nation, that despite of being a small country in terms of size and population, has found its way to earn an important place within the concert of nations,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>But opposition lawmaker <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zulayrodriguez.com\/\">Zulay Rodriguez Lu<\/a> says Panama&#8217;s leaders spend too much time hiding behind nationalistic rhetoric and should put more effort into enforcing the country&#8217;s laws.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Justice isn&#8217;t truly applied to those stealing money and evading our laws,&#8221; she says. The country&#8217;s rich and politically connected are largely exempt, she says.<\/p>\n<p>Until the Panama Papers leak last month, the co-founder of Mossack Fonseca, the law firm at the center of the scandal, was a close financial adviser to the president. Rodriguez says an investigation into the firm&#8217;s activities is also a sham. NPR&#8217;s requests to speak with Panama&#8217;s attorney general went unanswered.<\/p>\n<p>Panama responded to the pressure. Last month it signed financial sharing agreements with Japan and the U.S., and says it will with the OECD, too.<\/p>\n<p>Panama has always been willing to improve transparency, says Moises Cohen, the president of Capital Bank. It just wants a level playing field.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Small countries sign and small countries implement these rules,&#8221; he says. &#8220;And the big countries like the United Kingdom and the United States don&#8217;t fulfill and don&#8217;t implement this in the right way. And that&#8217;s a problem, no?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Panama&#8217;s offshore industry, now only a small part of the economy, will inevitably change, says economist Felipe Chapman. &#8220;It&#8217;s going to die out for the uses that it has been criticized for,&#8221; he says, &#8220;but it will still flourish for the desired uses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As Panama cleans up its system, experts say, dirty money will find other havens \u2014 unless remedies are initiated and enforced worldwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is a good article from NPR that shares the
