I do have to wonder if there is a Hesbollah element going on here, Lebanon is such a tiny nation, with so few people, and its not particularly rich either. Their taxes are much lower than most western nations generally capping out at 20% or so. They basically have the same gdp per capita and population as Libya and its around $8,000. How do you justify going offshore in a country where the average person is only making $8k? Even if you are making 10 times the average, the cost might not even cover the savings. given Lebanese modest tax regime.Martin Everson said:

Problem they will find is that with Hezbollah present a lot of EMI's won't touch Lebanon for fear of getting problems of terrorist financing. It is that simple sadly 😕.

I believe it happen for all of us already and for all financial institutions on this Globe. Such organisations know exactly what is required to work around it, ta least for some time before they get cought. It is one of the reason why this world has turned into what it is today! Things ain't get better in the future.hernanday said:
The worse thing that could happen for us is a bunch of Hezbollah terrorist get caught using the same things we are using (emis) and it get ruined for those of us who use it for legitimate reasons of privacy and diversification (like terrorist using swiss accounts and offshore, etc).

I can see why they have all these problems because it just has all the indicators of terrorism financing. The EMIs are right to be suspicious.
