OFFSHORE COMPANY SET UP
Offshore Company Set Up. The Benefits of Setting up an Offshore Company
An offshore company can offer many benefits and advantages to its owner that would otherwise be impossible to attain without it. With the rise of globalization, setting up an offshore company has become ever more advantageous and easier to accomplish. The benefits to gain from an offshore company will always depend on the the jurisdiction of the offshore company and to a certain extent, it will also depend on the laws of the country of residence of the company’s owner. It is therefore necessary that you not only pay attention to the offshore jurisdiction but that you also consider your local laws to make sure that every step you take is in line with the law.
KGN Services specializes in Offshore Company Setup, establishment of branches of foreign companies and opening bank accounts.
The Major Reason
The major reason people setup offshore companies is to take advantage of international laws. Lots of people falsely assume that offshore companies are all about money laundering and tax evasion, but this can’t be any further from the truth. There are fundamental laws that are necessary in every society, and such laws are always somewhat identical worldwide, like marriage, age of adulthood and criminalization of theft and murder. But when it comes to money and business practices, there is really no internationally accepted standard or code of ethics that a government should follow in the management of its economy and the businesses within it.
Many countries in need of foreign capital and investments have fashioned laws that make their local business climate attractive in one way or the other, especially for well to do foreigners. By becoming properly educated about these different laws, you can then decide to legally take advantage of them by setting up an offshore company of your own. Some of the favorite offshore destinations of the world include Anguilla, Seychelles, Belize, The British Virgin Islands, The Cayman Islands, Cyprus, Denmark, Dominica, Gibraltar, Ireland, Hong Kong, The Netherlands, Nevis, New Zealand, Seychelles, Singapore, Panama, The Marshall Islands, The United States of America and The United Kingdom.
The U.S.A. and the UK are interesting jurisdictions for an offshore company setup, for non-resident individuals who are not really interested in tax havens but rather want to make use of the other benefits of having an offshore firm.
