An offshore bank is a bank located outside the country of residence of the
depositor, typically in a low tax jurisdiction (or tax haven) that provides
financial and legal advantages.

In these days of invasive governments opening offshore or international
accounts can be a difficult and arduous task at best - we have done our
best to reduce or eliminate the head-aches and burdensome paperwork for
our clients via our close association, and special agreements with the
various banks, trust companies, and financial services providers we work
with. Whatever the reason for 'going offshore', there are now many
jurisdictions  overflowing with banks who are only too happy to provide you
with private services, once only available to the Elite and Wealthy.  And all of
the organizations we work with are highly rated, safe, secure, and
respectable. These institutions are as good as your local bank at home in
many respects and in many cases bigger and/or better.  

These advantages typically include:
-greater privacy (see also bank secrecy, a principle born with the 1934
Swiss Banking Act)
-less restrictive legal regulation
-low or no taxation (i.e. tax havens)
-easy access to deposits (at least in terms of regulation)
-protection against local political or financial instability

Offshore banking has increased rapidly all over the world since mid-1960s
because of the growth and liquidity of world financial markets. The full
spectrum of financial services from offshore banks include deposit taking,
money transmissions, provision of foreign exchange, trade finance, credit
facilities, investment custody, investment management, fund management,
trustee services, and corporate administration.

Diaz Barreto Law offices will open a bank account in the best banks.

Offshore banks provide access to politically and economically stable
offshore  jurisdictions that may be an advantage for those resident in areas
where there is a risk of expropriation or where there is corruption within
the banking system. Many offshore banks offer services that may be
unavailable in your country of residence. Offshore banks in several nations
participate in mandated bank account deposit protection insurance
systems. Some offshore banks may even provide higher interest rates than
banks in the home country.










The banks, we use, offer a full range of offshore online banking services, all
of them with offshore internet banking and debit cards which will allow you
to have quick and easy access to your funds almost anywhere in the world.

We regularly review the best offshore banking opportunities for business
or investment purposes in the market place and recommend those which
we believe to be best suited to meet your identified needs.

Debit cards are offered for bank accounts through one of our

Advantages of offshore banking

Offshore banks provide access to politically and economically stable
jurisdictions. This may be an advantage for those resident in areas where
there is a risk of political turmoil who fear their assets may be frozen,
seized or disappear (see the corralito for example, during the 2001
Argentine economic crisis). However, developed countries with regulated
banking systems offer the same advantages in terms of stability.

Some offshore banks may operate with a lower cost base and can provide
higher interest rates than the legal rate in the home country due to lower
overheads and a lack of government intervention. Advocates of offshore
banking often characterise government regulation as a form of tax on
domestic banks, reducing interest rates on deposits.

Offshore finance is one of the few industries, along with tourism, in which
geographically remote island nations can competitively engage. It can help
developing countries source investment and create growth in their
economies, and can help redistribute world finance from the developed to
the developing world.

Interest is generally paid by offshore banks without tax deducted. This is an
advantage to individuals who do not pay tax on worldwide income, or who
do not pay tax until the tax return is agreed, or who feel that they can
illegally evade tax by hiding the interest income.

Some offshore banks offer banking services that may not be available from
domestic banks such as anonymous bank accounts, higher or lower rate
loans based on risk and investment opportunities not available elsewhere.
Offshore banking is often linked to other structures, such as offshore
companies, trusts or foundations, which may have specific tax advantages
for some individuals.

Many advocates of offshore banking also assert that the creation of tax and
banking competition is an advantage of the industry, arguing with Charles
Tiebout that tax competition allows people to choose an appropriate
balance of services and taxes. Critics of the industry, however, claim this
competition as a disadvantage, arguing that it encourages a "race to the
bottom" in which governments in developed countries are pressured to
deregulate their own banking systems in an attempt to prevent the
offshoring of capital.
