A spotlight on the super rich shopping for passports in the Pacific Islands, and what it means for international efforts to combat tax evasion.
Since the early 1980s, numerous Pacific Island countries have sold passports to foreigners.
Anthony van Fossen is an adjunct senior lecturer at the School of Humanities, Languages and Social Science at Griffith University.
He is conducting long-term research on the international political economy of the Pacific Islands and tax havens.
Dr van Fossen spoke to Kathryn Ryan who asked how citizenship shopping works.
