The Why and How of Setting Up an IBC

by Confidential Banking #1 Merchant Processing Services

Offshore companies, also known as International Business Corporations (“IBCs”), are growing increasingly popular among individuals and businesses alike.

But why?       

One of the primary reasons behind the growing popularity of IBCs is tax savings. The populace from high tax countries (e.g., the U.S.) often consider offshore IBC formations in tax-friendly jurisdictions (e.g., Panama) to reduce their tax liabilities.

Other reasons include:

      An offshore business formation offers legal asset protection by making your assets more confidential and private.

      Offshore jurisdiction imposes much lesser fees than onshore jurisdictions.

      It is possible to establish an offshore company without disclosing the information of the nominee manager or director. This ensures maximum confidentiality and anonymity of business corporations and affairs.

Establishing an offshore presence for your business can be a very beneficial prospect, to say the least. However, there are a few details that you need to consider before taking your business overseas:

      Firstly, you need to select an offshore jurisdiction that allows you to legally conduct business operations. Research the local laws and regulations of the offshore jurisdiction you are considering carefully. For example, many offshore jurisdictions will not allow online casinos to operate without a gaming license, whereas some do not have this requirement.

      Next, the privacy and confidentiality of the jurisdiction need to be taken into account. Does the jurisdiction allow bearer shares and nominee directors? Does the jurisdiction have any treaties with other countries to share information?

      Once your company has been established, an offshore bank account must be set-up. The bank must be fully insured, have had a background check, and offer a high level of service with Internet, telephone and fax banking.

      Reliable offshore merchant processing must also be put in place, allowing you to accept payments from your customers by credit card and settle to the privacy of your offshore IBC company bank account.

These are just a few of the many aspects you will need to consider in regards to your quest for a stable offshore banking solution.
