Page 1: Offshore Company Factsheet

Having an offshore company presents a great many advantages over its onshore equivalent. There are

three main reasons a business may choose to set up offshore.

1. Offshore companies for trading;

Many companies which trade overseas have offshore bases.

Some of these companies choose to set up an offshore company, mainly to benefit from

substantial tax savings.

Tax savings can be available to a company of any size, from small business to giant corporations.

2. Offshore companies for protecting a directors identity;

Due to local investment restrictions or risk of actions from creditors, directors may wish to

keep their identities secret.

Offshore companies are able to own properties, hold money and shares and other items in their own right.

This means that an individual can use their company to make various purchases and then be protected by the fact that no one can discover that the company is owned by that person.

Off course, levels of privacy available differ with different off shore jurisdictions.

3. Offshore companies for the tax savings;

The zero or minimal tax rates applicable to offshore companies makes them very attractive to profit driven businesses.

The prospect of retaining all the income earned leads to some businesses opening offshore

branches and using them as trading vehicles.

As well as corporate tax savings, offshore companies usually enjoy tax-free capital gains and

inheritance charges.
