Message to INFODIO readers: investigative journalism, which is what this site does, takes lots of time. Visiting media looking for a quick run down on Venezuela's gargantuan corruption, have the decency to at least cite the source when plagiarising this site's content without attribution (exhibit Reuters here and here, exhibit Bloomberg here, exhibit OCCRP here). To all readers, do the right thing, the honest thing: support independent investigative journalism, help us expose rampant corruption. Note added 28/06/2021: impostors are using this site's former editor's full name, and a fake email address (alek.boyd.arregui@gmail.com) to send copyright infringement claims / take down requests to web hosting companies (exhibit Hostgator). The attempt is yet another effort paid by corrupt thugs to erase information about their criminal activities. Infodio.com has no issues with other websites / journalists using / posting information published here, so long as the source is properly cited.

Bill Duker's shell Algamex financing PDVSA legal battle

Remember that beautiful sailing boat owned by Bill Duker? It's called Sybaris. It's for sale (€88 million), in case any reader wants to buy it and perpetuate the Greek myth associated with sybarite lifestyles. Digging further on Algamex, the shell that David Boies & Duker are using to provide funding from time to time to PDVSA US Litigation Trust, I finally found company records from Cyprus registrar: expectedly, Algamex's sole shareholder is Sybaris Limited, an Isle of Man shell fronted by a bunch of proxies grouped under Zedra Trust Company Limited. Duker's name is well hidden in Man, but there's no further doubts as to who is behind Algamex.
