This is the best part. The entity could be owned by insiders and nobody would ever know; "Ballsbridge is "an investment vehicle set up to do this" by "a reputable company that has been around for a long time," says Eric Loumeau, vice president and general counsel of Hollis-Eden.

He says the use of offshore vehicles in such equity lines is common."
