Do Bunq also provide this for business accounts?

Everyone has legal risk exposure ... no matter how 100% legal you believe yourself to be. I do however understand it is not an important factor for you. To the specific factors you do mention as relevant: Inheritance - Probably require very specific advice ... trusts may be an interesting...

You misunderstood what I referred to as transparent. The Canadian LLP/LP need not be particularly transparent with respect to your person (ie partner identities) ... in fact it can be much less transparent than anything you will find in most IBCs in traditional offshore locations today. I was...

Transferwise ... or payoneer (if you can live with their idea of "service")

It should also be noted that a Canadian LLP/LP may NOT afford you the risk protection that you may be looking for. These are essentially partnership entities which mean they are transparent for many issues ... including some potential liabilities.

Unless you are involved in high-leverage bets in the market that may more than wipe out your capital it does not seem to me that an intermediate entity would add much value. As you note the US can be risky due to political factors. I am left wondering if you maybe might be better off...

I think Taiwan is an interesting option on several counts ... however from what I hear it is getting a little harder to do.

BCEE Luxembourg Private customers are somewhat less unreliable than the other banks mentioned here ... and they will even consider Americans.

Be prepared to spend time with customer service to try to negotiate a solution. Note ... they have a weird concept of customer service.

The above from Transferwise only claims they do not report your transactions, not that they do not report anything.

Company papers and personal ID.

Gold may be subject to seizure as you try to cross borders ... or it may be affected by reducing limits on (fiat) currency transactions, or it may become illegal to hold outright. Other than that ... I would say it is a better bet than holding paper currency ... which again is a better bet than...

From where I am?

"Will you report my transfers to the tax authorities? ... At this time we are not reporting this information to HMRC or any other tax authority. " They do not report your transfers ... however it is wishful thinking to believe that they will not report your account just from reading this...

On the other hand, I do not believe there is a single solution anywhere on this forum that may not be attacked by the Govt if they think they have something to gain by it. They write the laws, they interpret the laws, they enforce the laws ... you are never safe from them.
