The Chief Minister says there's the potential for a constitutional crisis if the next UK government tries to force the Island to introduce a public register of beneficial ownership.
Mr Bell was speaking at a sitting of the Tynwald Economic Review Committee yesterday afternoon.
He faced questions from the committe about work going on in government to offset any potential negative impact following the outcome of next month's UK General Election.
Mr Bell said there was a "serious drive" to ensure that some changes to the transparency in ownership of private companies is brought in:
Lack of opportunity to study science 'could be impacting future doctors'
Glen Maye patient airlifted to the UK
Trial for man who denies being controlling and coercive
Visitors asked to avoid main cemetery entrance on Sunday
Onchan man accused of committing act against public justice
Douglas Council using reserves to pay for 'decorative' promenade lighting
