Abstract

The Spanish Tax Agency is an experienced user of big data and has now deployed social network analysis (SNA) tools. SNA tools have led to a qualitative leap in such wide-ranging areas as tax collection, enforcement, control of ultra-high-net-worth individuals, and money laundering. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the different lines of research, strategies and results of nine projects over the last five years, including the lessons learned. We present the best practices in pattern discovery, the tools developed for the control of big fortunes and the strategy developed to create a bridge between expert knowledge and SNA technologies. We highlight the results of investigating interposed entities used to channel personal remuneration, complex corporate structures, and opaque companies.
