Hi im looking to incorporate offshore for the following setup:
I am a UK citizen, currently living/domicled full time in the Netherlands (currently paying PAYE income tax in Holland from full time employment).
I want to set up up XYZ limited offshore (open to all suggestions). Which will operate a financial derivative trading (investment) account with one of the large futures trading companies in London. The trades can be physically done from anywhere in the world.
Individual A invests/lends funds to XYZ limited which then deposits the money with a marketmaker/broker in the name of XZY limited. XYZ then invests the money in various automated investment trading strategies. If the company successfully makes a profit, then funds are transferred from the trading account back to the offshore company. The funds can then be transferred back to Individual A (which will then be responsible for his/her own tax liabilities) and commissions/management fees will be built up offshore in the bank account of XYZ limited. Is there anyone that is familiar with this kind of set-up or can reccomend a more optimal way of doing this?
Requirements I have:
Zero tax offshore liabilities. No annual reports / records required. Cost effective i.e. relative to other jurisdictions Privacy / no personal records kept on file. minimal annual fees / maintenence. confidential / privacy fast setup
Bank account requirements: With large respectable bank - safety of deposits. online banking - easy wire transfers in/out of the account ATM / debit / credit cards linked to account - large withdrawel limits. Physical withdrawel of large amounts of cash direct from bank account (if so required). Fully English speaking service - with absoloutly no doubt of safety of deposited funds.
Willing to set up anywhere in the world that best suits my need.
Anyone that can help/advice would be much appreciated. Please contact me with email/contact details and ill be in touch.
Regards
Rajesh

This needs to be studied in great detail as a licence to operate this type of business might be necessary. please contact me on pbt@maltanet.net
REPLY:
Hi Rajesh, I know we have already corresponded regarding this matter and I feel that the licencing requirement is possibly relevant in certain jurisdictions although those discussed already would generally not have this requirement. Please feel free to contact me again by email on james@turnerlittle.com or via our web site at www.turnerlittle.com

Pretty easy task. Try Bermuda jurisdiction for XYZ, any decent bank in Cyprus, Netherlands or Malta, and any top US based online brokers (Etrade, TD Ameritrade, Schwab). Good luck.

Hi just read your post. I would like to know if you have what you are looking for. If not then I think I may be in a position to help you out.
We supply a range of different Credit Pre Paid Debit and ATM cards issued from very low profile countries. Here are some of the benefits.
Here are some of the benefits we have to offer you:
No reporting requirements, High daily limits, Minimal ID requirements,
Each card comes with a operational online bank account, based in a very large secure German bank. Your ID is not shared with the bank,. The Cards are then provided from a second bank so you ID is well protected. The cards have no reporting requirements; the countries the banks are located in have no exchange of information treaties with any of the US UK Australia or other governments. I believe these are the most secure, private, secret and anonymous debit cards.
Please get back to me and let me know if we can assist you. rbpanama@globalbanker.net

Dear Sirs
After reading your post on Lowtax.com please note that from our 92 Jurisdictions which we service the most appropriate in your particular case is either Gibraltar or UAE as they both address your particular concerns. Please note that the recommendation is based on the information at hand however once we further progress there is a possibility that the recommended jurisdiction may need to be changed to address your particular needs.
We are able to offer complete corporate services in all Jurisdictions directly via our own offices.
There are 27 Free zones available in UAE and within these aprox 20 different structures that may be used, therefore we have 540 options available as a starting point and then these need to be adapted to the needs of the customer in relation to their specific requirements for employees, operating areas and licences. However there is also the normal IBC structure in which we are able to deliver in aprox 3 working days.
In relation to Gibraltar there are various options which are attractive especially with the Cat 2 highly tax efficient Immigration programmes.
The two jurisdictions offer spectacular value especially when coupled to multi jurisdictional structures or trusts. Additionally we are able to structure your online multicurrency bank account without the need to visit.
Please see our website www.uae-eu.com for more information on our Company and products.
In order to download our UAE Corporate Offshore Brochure please visit http://www.uae-eu.com/pdf/rak_offshorebrochure.pdf
I look forward to hearing from you, should you wish to take the matter further please send me an email to adrian@uae-eu.com for a free no obligation initial consultancy.
