Offshore Company Formation



It is estimated that almost 60% of global wealth is held in offshore accounts of offshore companies or offshore trusts and that over 50% of global transactions are conducted through offshore jurisdictions.
Why? -because if set up properly, there are numerous legal benefits of being offshore such as increased privacy and asset protection as well as overall tax minimisation.

An offshore trust is created when assets are transferred to a trustee.

The following assets can be held by an offshore trust
Shares and stocks in both quoted and unquoted companies.
Investment portfolios.
Real and intellectual property.
Bank deposits.
Life assurance policies issued on the life of the Settlor.
Most other types of asset

A trust is the solution for individuals who:
Want to preserve their wealth against uncertainty, political, economic or family.
Want to transfer wealth to their heirs in a tax-efficient manner. They want to plan their estate to maximize the benefits of their wealth for family members and others.
