Journalist Ola Xama gave details on the show "The Unexposed" on MCN TV about the financial abuses of the Bankers company in Albania. According to Xama, the damage is at least 100 million euros per year, by not paying taxes to the state budget.
"Bankers operates one of the largest oil fields in continental Europe and the largest in Albania. It accounts for about 90 percent of Albania's production."
It is divided into several periods, from the method of granting a concession to a company, which had only 1 in an offshore country, to the period of contract implementation, the fiscal favors that were given to this company.
Its involvement in the affair of smuggling low-quality oil, the continued exploitation of increased spending to avoid paying profit tax into the state budget.
So, if we can summarize the damage that was done, it only appears in 2 audit reports that were made by the National Agency of Natural Resources, but if we take as a reference the value of non-deductible expenses. That these reports have, they refer to Bankers Petroleum. At a minimum, it is about 100 million euros per year.
Profit tax that Bankers should have paid to the Albanian state from 2005 to 2026, if we could define it based on the reference of these audit reports. Approximately 1 so, then what the Fier prosecution has discovered, which it then forwarded to the special prosecution, about the transfer price scheme.
She has not been able to find the audit reports of AKBN, the National Agency for Natural Resources, because she has not been interested in this work. She stated that she was selling oil for 80 dollars, but she was selling it to a branch of her company, selling it for 80 dollars a barrel, while on the stock exchange it was 100 dollars.
The barrel and that 20 percent, so 20 dollars per barrel, 20 percent of the price, he had it offshore, which was with 0 profit tax and he still transferred it to himself. But this has not been measured yet. Even here, from what has been found in the loan contracts that he gave himself, it is somewhere around 200 million euros," said Xama.
