LONDON (Reuters) - Tax practices detailed in the so-called Paradise Papers, a trove of leaked offshore investment documents relating to wealthy individual and institutions, are dying out, OECD boss Angel Gurria said on Monday.

"When we're talking about the Panama Papers, the Paradise Papers, we're talking about a legacy that is fast disappearing," Gurria said in a speech delivered in London at a Confederation of British Industry conference.

"This could not be repeated anymore because of the joint work that you, your governments and the OECD have done in the last few years," he told the audience.
