    A Cryptoexchange that accepts Transferwise transfers

    In another thread, someone had asked whether cryptoasset exchanges would accept wires to and from Transferwise accounts, and the consensus responses seemed to be that they would not because of compliance reasons. In fact, Gemini explicitly blocks such transfers. However I thought it wouldn't...

    RAK Offshore Experience?

    Would anyone share their experience setting up a RAK offshore company (not a FZ), ease of bank account opening, etc? Is the company subject to audits or must have a local accountant? I'm thinking of an online consultancy business. Since RAK offshore companies are not allowed to conduct...

    Is it easy/possible to dodge the CRS?

    Hypothetically, I am wondering how feasible would it be to dodge the CRS, i.e. the automatic exchange of information mandated by OECD countries where your financial data is sent by the country where you hold a bank account to your country of residence for tax purposes. Suppose Bob is a citizen...

    Credit Card application outside bank?

    I have a corporation in the BVI and a bank account in a US bank. They provide me with a very simple VISA card, which sucks (no rewards program, no online statement, frequent problems). They don't have a better offer for their corporate customers at the moment. Is it possible to apply somehow...

    Dodging AEOI

    As far as I know, the AEOI rules mandate that the financial institution sends customer data to the tax authorities of the country it's incorporated using the CRS standard. The local tax authorities will then route this data to those of the client's jurisdiction. So what if a person living in a...

    EUR versus USD

    My bank has informed they'll stop doing USD transactions and forced me to exchange my USD balance to EUR, causing me a considerable loss in the process. I'm sure they have the right of acting arbitrarily and I'm happy to go banking elsewhere. However, I'm wondering if I should take this...

    Panama/Saint Lucia Banking?

    I have a 100% legit business under my name and a EU bank account. However, I'd like a second bank account as a backup, and I've been offered an introduction to a bank in Panama (don't know which one) and to BOSLIL bank in St Lucia. Would anyone care to elaborate on the banking situation in...

    Easiest country to apply for a trademark?

    So, I have a domain name registered 6 years ago, and now it became a popular term. An American lawyer recently filled a USPTO trademark for that name, and threatened to sue me if I refused to sell him at his (ridiculous) price. I'm aware he'd lose the case as the domain registration is much...

    Cook Islands vs Nevis Trust?

    Would anyone be able to compare these two trust solutions in terms of protection, reliability and maintenance costs? I've heard Cook Islands is the best, but are there really meaningful differences to Nevis?

    Holding entity bank account

    So this might be a very basic question. After reading plenty of material regarding asset protection, it seems that a holding entity (such as a trust or a foundation) owning 100% of a operating company is a sound strategy. I have an offshore company owned by me as an individual. I do my online...
