“These offshore investments consisted of hundreds of millions of dollars in loans and equity investments, made with foundation assets, to develop a Four Seasons Resort at Emerald Bay, Great Exuma, Bahamas; a Ritz Carlton Hotel at Seven Mile Beach, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands; and a Four Seasons Resort at Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica,” according to their brief filed with the supreme court. “The trustees funded these offshore investments through an elaborate network of over 100 holding companies, subsidiaries, partnerships and other related organizations with legal domiciles in the British Virgin Islands, the Bahamas, Costa Rica, the Cayman Islands and Panama.”
