Tax Haven Bermuda Companies 2014 Total Audited Earnings Were $20.2 Bil, Up 34% Over 2013 and As Compared To 2008 Total Losses of $5.6 Bil ..... Two Year 2013-14 Earnings Were $35.1 Bil, Up 715% Over Two Year 2008-9 Earnings of $4.3 Bil ..... It's Incredible How Many Companies Are Paying Such Little Tax ..... US Domestic Companies Paying Their Fair Share of Taxes Must Be Furious ..... Where in the World Has the US Congress Been?

From an SEC review of Companies HQd in Bermuda with all financial statements prepared in US Dollars, and with current stock market capitalizations of more than $100 mil, I found the following 50 Companies presented in market cap order:
