Harborne is no stranger to the British media, donating more than £6 million to the U.K.’s Brexit party in 2019 and previously donating £15,000 a year to the Conservative Party since 2001.

Christopher Charles Sherriff Harborne is a client at the dubious law firm MOSSACK FONSECA, according to Offshore Leaks, and consequently, he also appears in the Panama Papers.

Conclusion

Due to the involvement of major shareholder Christopher Charles Sherriff Harborne in various offshore leaks, as well as his connection to the criminal organization MOSSACK FONSECA and the fact that it is a PEP, we place IFX Payments on our “Red Orange” list.
