Secrecy?

It may surprise you to learn that the number one reason for people moving money offshore is not because of tax benefits but asset protection. Today's predaceous and litigious society unfortunately makes successful people vulnerable to lawsuits of every kind.

Why Bermuda?

Having pioneered offshore business, Bermuda is home to more than 59,500 international companies and partnerships, an insurance and re-insurance industry with total assets in excess of $500 billion, an investment fund industry of over 15,000 funds with assets in excess of $130 billion and the world's premiere offshore stock exchange with a market capitalization in excess of $260 billion. Over 85 of the Fortune 100 companies have operations in Bermuda. Isn't it time your business was here?

Bermuda is the world's leading offshore financial center. The Island has been a British Colony since 1609 and remains today the oldest self governing British Dependant Territory. The legal system is based on British Common Law and the Island can boast centuries of political, social and economic stability, with a long tradition of Parliamentary rule.

Bermuda offers a wealth of sophisticated corporate management services, local management consultants, and management services companies, as well as trust companies and brokerage firms.

Both the Bermuda Dollar and the U.S. Dollar, which are trade at par with each other, are regularly accepted as currency. Banks will set up accounts in either currency.

Bermuda , situated in the Atlantic ocean, is a self-governing British colony and its large, respected financial center has been in operation for more than 20 years.

Income per head is among the highest in the world on Bermuda Service charges are also generally higher than those in other offshore centers. Bermuda has no estate duties, income tax or capital gains tax, and no double taxation treaties of any kind.

Bermuda is widely recognized as an excellent location in which to establish trusts, with "purpose" trusts being available as well as those favoring beneficiaries. Settlers can choose law governing the trust and the details do not have to be disclosed or registered with any public body.

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, Cayman Islands, London or other British Capital Group's world-wide 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.

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 Tax: 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.
