Description

Offshore jurisdictions are often associated with secrecy and tax advantages—but the reality is more nuanced. These countries and territories provide favorable regulations, low or zero taxes, and enhanced privacy for non-residents. They can deliver clear benefits such as reduced tax burdens, asset protection, regulatory flexibility, and streamlined business structures. Common examples include the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Jersey, Isle of Man, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein. While they offer legitimate tools for global business and wealth management, they remain at the center of ongoing global debates about transparency and compliance.
