Why Antigua And Barbuda?
The government regulates Antiguan registered offshore banks, through the International Business Corporations Authority, which is the sole licensing body for banks, insurance and trust companies. This degree of regulation gives Antigua its international respect and integrity as an offshore financial sector. The distinguishing features of Antigua as an attractive offshore jurisdiction include inter alias:

Antigua & Barbuda The Ultimate Tax Haven |

Location:
Antigua And Barbuda pronounced
(An-tee'ga):
The Capital of Antigua is St. John’s. Antigua is a renowned and developed resort destination, visited by approximately half a million tourists annually. Barbuda, the smaller sister isle, has as its capital the town of Codrington. It is the home of the exclusive K Club, whose clientele boasts many world famous celebrities. |

Confidentiality
Under the legislation it is a criminal offense to disclose any information pertaining to the affairs or transaction of client of a bank. Disclosure of confidential information can only be made by a court order arising from an authorized investigation. Professionals and banks in Antigua And Barbuda, in addition to a confidential contractual obligation, are subject to the Confidential Relationships Ordinance, 1981, which imposes a criminal penalty for breaches of confidence. Shareholders and directors of ordinary companies must be published to the Registrar of Companies annually, but the common use of nominee shareholders holding the shares under a trust agreement provides an additional layer of secrecy. For the purposes of the Companies Ordinance, the Registrar may obtain a Court Order requiring disclosure of beneficial ownership of shares. The Court will respect attorney-client privilege on such an application by a Registrar. Attorneys and banks require full disclosure of clients' names and backgrounds, but will not disclose such information without a court order or similar obligation. | 
Antigua And Barbuda Bullet Proof Jurisdiction |
An offshore bank may engage in any generally acceptable banking activities from within Antigua and Barbuda and elsewhere.
An Antigua & Barbuda offshore bank has the power to issue Visa or Mastcards in co-operation with a correspondent bank. To qualify for one of these cards, your client needs to show a balance in his account of around US$300 over the last three months. Once the card has been issued, there is no further need to maintain the minimum balance in the account. Card transactions operate in the Czech Republic as they do elsewhere, with the ability to do withdrawals directly from ATM's, which means that a member always has access to the money in his account.

Capital Requirement
The minimum required capitalization is US$500.000 which must be in cash ( can be financed by British Capital Group)
The Government imposes a US$50.000 capital reserve requirement ( also can be financed by British Capital Group ) by a purchase of government bonds or cash which must be held during the lifetime of the bank. Applications may be processed within 4-8 weeks.
An offshore bank is not subject to any reserve requirements as specified under the Banking Act which regulates the operation of local banks
Directors:
An international banking corporation must have at least one director and a director need not to be a natural person.
Taxation
The banking corporation is exempted form the payment of all taxes for a period of fifty (50) years
The income, profits, gains and other revenues and the funds and securities of an exempt corporation are exempt from exchange control regulations unless the exempt corporation is a resident.
Government Fees:
Fees charged by the government in respect of an International Banking Business are as follows:

Mailing, Fax, Telephone And Office Facilities:
As part of the domiciliary service fee we provide clients with a registered office address in the country of incorporation but clients may find it convenient to arrange for mail forwarding, fax and telephone facilities through our Switzerland, Bahamas Islands, London or other British Capital Group offices. This service may be especially useful where, for example, the company is opening bank accounts. Normally the bank would address statements and other correspondence to the company at the address of the client but this results in a loss of confidentiality in that the connection between the company name and the client will be automatically made.
To safeguard against this mail can be directed to our offices and we can re-mail those letters in a plain envelope addressed to the client or otherwise as the client directs. An additional advantage of using our re-mailing services is that the provision of a re-mailing address through one of our prestigiously located offices in the onshore jurisdictions may allow the offshore company to appear to be domiciled on-shore and thereby give that company an added degree if respectability. |
Antigua and Barbuda; The Real Life |

For example, your offshore company could quote
British Capital Group London office address on its letterhead and thereby appear to be domiciled in the UK. This procedure is particularly attractive if the Hong Kong address is used as a Hong Kong company is not required to quote its registered office address on its letterhead. Thus if an offshore company were to quote a Hong Kong address it would be indistinguishable from the letterhead, from a normal Hong Kong trading company.The charge for this service is only $275 per annum.
Trust Services: Using a trust to own the shares of an offshore company can result in very substantial tax and non-tax related advantages which will accrue both on death and during the lifetime of the trust settler. These advantages may include: Saving Of Inheritance: On death, the Inheritance tax which would normally be assessed on the value of shares would generally be eradicated. Asset Protection: Assets placed into trust are generally beyond the reach of creditors who might arise as a result of financial difficulties, divorce proceedings, litigation, etc. |

Avoidance Of Probate:
A trust provides a means whereby assets can be smoothly passed on to the next generation without the disruption, delays substantial costs, loss of confidentiality associated with the probate procedure which necessarily follows when assets are bequeathed by will.
Continuity: Trusts provide a means whereby assets can continue to be administered in accordance with the wishes of the settlor after his death so the weak can be protected from others and the spend-thrift can be protected from himself. Lifetime Tax Savings: During lifetime, substantial income and capital gains tax advantages may result from setting up the trust. Using the service of one of our licensed trust companies, we are pleased to act as trustee for a suitably drafted discretionary trust and the cost of this service would be from US$500 for setting up the trust deed and from US$500 per annum for the provision of trustee services. Other Services: British Capital Group provides a wide range of administrative and documentary services including, but not limited to legalization and notarizing of documents, credit cards, yacht and ship registration, invoicing, documentary trade services, trade finance applications, accounting, consulting and immigration services. |
