Mizrahi-Tefahot one of three banks targeted by Justice Department for helping US citizens avoid paying taxes by stashing their assets in offshore accounts The bank, Israel’s third-largest, has more than 4,000 employees and a Los Angeles branch. In court documents, Mizrahi-Tefahot acknowledged that from 2002 until 2012 it conspired with US clients to avoid taxes on assets and securities by opening and maintaining offshore accounts under false or code names or through foreign entities... admitting it helped US taxpayers hide assets.
