This report has been
updated, expanded and re-named as Offshore Tax Strategies.
If you are seriously
interested in international asset protection or offshore investing,
there are some complex tax issues with which you must deal.
When you have an offshore
asset protection trust, the trustee must invest your assets. but there
are very different tax results for different kinds of offshore
investments.
Investing through a
foreign corporation or "International Business company" (IBC) may be
necessary in order to secure access to foreign investments, but these
structures can cause severe tax consequences unless you know how to
legally side step the problems.
Offshore mutual funds do
not offer tax deferral - unless you know how to do it to comply with
the
U.S. tax laws.
