With regular changes to international boundaries, regulations and tax regimes, effective estate planning and wealth management can be complex to the point of perplexing. Paradoxically, this complexity can actually create opportunities for both protection and growth, but only if you enlist specialist help. At EuroWest Capital, our fiduciary services team specializes in the formation and management of offshore trusts and other asset holding structures for a wide number of purposes, including preservation of wealth, tax planning, probate avoidance and succession planningWe also provide and administer corporate entities, which may offer commercial or fiscal advantages. This may simplify the complexities inherent in the ownership of geographically diverse assets. Custody facilities - available for holding internationally traded securities offshore, including nominee company services, full dealing capabilities, portfolio valuations and facilities for dividend collection and the processing of corporate actions.

New taxes and legislation, volatile markets, inflation, changes in your personal life, everyday risks such as fire and theft... One thing is certain – you need to plan to protect your wealth. We can work with you to help structure your wealth in a way that minimizes the impact of changes. We can help you diversify your assets to spread risk, or discuss trusts that could protect your wealth at home and overseas. We can introduce you to tax experts to help you minimize your current and future tax liabilities. We will also work to help you find a balance of protection and flexibility. Protecting your wealth needs to be done in a way that does not cause its own problems such as barring you from access to your capital for fixed periods when you may need access to it. It’s your life. A plan to protect your wealth will help ensure you to live it according to your priorities.

Why offshore?

There are many reasons why you should consider using offshore financial services, including:
 investing your wealth offshore to help protect assets from economic and political instability, with assets held in well regulated financial centers.
• the security and confidentiality which the premier offshore jurisdictions offer.
• no exchange control restrictions in the offshore islands. This allows you to move assets freely and without formality.
• interest on your savings and investment accounts is paid gross, without deduction of tax at source (although you may have a liability to tax elsewhere).*
• holding assets offshore may have some tax planning advantages*
• there may be inheritance tax benefits, depending upon your country of domicile.*
• the offshore islands have sophisticated worldwide communication links, facilitating ease of access.
*Please note: We are not tax advisers and therefore suggest that you seek independent advice from an accountant or other suitably qualified adviser.
