Moix and his siblings owned an offshore company in Panama, which was apparently inherited from their parents.[3] The company, Duchesse Financial Overseas, was set up in 1988, and in 1990 bought a luxury villa near Madrid worth approximately ā¬550,000.[4]
Moix also received criticism for other issues. He is alleged to have attempted to interfere in corruption investigations, including the "Lezo Case", involving the governing People's Party.[2]
