Are you managing the company? Then the PE rules apply and you have to pay taxes at your home as you are managing a company locally.
But apart from that, I would say benefitting from the absence of CFC is fairly easy 🙂

Yes, the company is taxed at the place it is managed. You first need to ensure you have no issues with that. Once that is clear, you are fine if there are no CFC rules in any coutry you are tax resident.
I don't know the exact setup, it is hard to give any solid advice.

Can you please elaborate on your case? What is your residency, business, etc.? I am happy to help, but would need some more information to give you a bit more accurate advice.
In short, CFC rules apply if you are living in a high tax country and are shifting (especially passive investment) to a low tax country by setting up an offshore company with a director there. They will then still tax you at home.

There are many countries without CFC. Switzerland, Hong Kong, etc. Of course, there are still PE rules. But in the case of like Hong Kong with no tax on passive income, the CFC rules are not really making a lot of sense as most of them are built to trigger tax on shifted passive profits.
