Direct Offshore Investing
Our unique direct offshore investing solutions do not require an offshore last will and avoid certain offshore taxes such as probate and SITUS tax. These investments are taxed in the base currency, making them very tax-efficient, especially if the investment grows due to currency fluctuations. Offshore investments are taxed at a fixed rate of 30% on income and 12% CGT.
​
These investments are structured with liquidity in mind, allowing for payouts into your offshore account. Many clients utilize these investments to ensure their children can study abroad, to facilitate travel, and to protect against currency devaluation over time.
