    Sacrificing privacy for functionality?

    Like many here I've spent the years in the cheap, zero tax, anonymous structures/jurisdictions. And while it's still currently working it is getting increasingly harder (mostly for banking options). I find myself spending a lot of time constantly looking for, applying for (and often getting...

    DBA or Trading names for Seychelles IBC?

    Just wondering if it's possible to use a different DBA or multiple DBA names under the one IBC, specifically in Seychelles?

    Choosing a RA based on banking connections

    Just a quick query, Would you choose your registered agent based on the banking connections / options they have available? Or would it suffice to simply use another introducer for the bank of choice? I'm looking at one RA but they only work with Mau Bank and Bank One in Mauritius. I'm not...

    Hey guys, I'm just curious how you would show (on accounting records) an injection of cash from a personal source to your offshore corporate structure? I realise most of the jurisdictions we use (including my own) don't require accounting records but I keep them because I've been asked a few...

    Private Conversations bugs

    @Admin I've no idea why but for a long time now I often get an error either midway through typing or when trying to send a PM to another user. The error is always the same and states HTML code is not allowed, even though there is none. I can often send the message if I copy/paste again and...

    Securing a loan for an offshore company

    I looked in to securing a loan for an offshore company a while back and pretty much gave up as most offshore banks wouldn't lend to non-resident companies. Was just wondering if there's any downside to incorporating a second onshore company with the sole purpose of securing a loan? The onshore...

    Cheapest corporate bank account

    I'm curious to see what the cheapest corporate bank account might be. I was looking at Afrasia & ABC in Mauritius but my introducer is being a pain so started looking around at other options. These two above I initially liked because they have zero minimum balance or fall-below fees, zero...

Things like signing contracts, minutes of meetings and resolutions etc. Just trying to get an idea if my nominees fees are in line with industry standard.

    Pros & Cons for corporate or natural nominees?

    I admit I did not give this much consideration before using my nominees and now I'm wondering what the benefits or disadvantages are of going each way? The corporate nominees are considerably cheaper than using a natural person but I couldn't say why? On the surface it seems like a corporate...

    Bitcoin Volatility

    How do you manage the volatility of your bitcoins? I've been watching exchange rates for a while and it just seems way too high risk for anything large scale. The last month alone it has swung between approximately US$750 to US$1150. If you received bitcoins at the peak and paid bills in USD a...
