Asset Protection through an Offshore Corporation.

By: Doug Sitenal

Asset Protection through an Offshore Company (IBC)

Forming a company offshore is a far superior asset protection technique than any onshore asset protection setup.

A court can issue an order to break an onshore asset protection scheme for one of a hundred different reasons.

It's an all too common scenario. In the heat of a lawsuit, a sympathetic judge simply sets aside your asset protection trust for one technicality or another.

On the other hand an offshore corporation provides a secure place to keep money out of lawsuit prone hands because a judge cannot order you to provide assets you do not own.

Most offshore companies are either bearer share corporations where the ownership is totally anonymous, or they are owned by a foundation.

Since a foundation legally cannot be owned, it is a dead end for any onshore court. No court can order an illegal action, including ordering you to repatriate funds that belong to a foundation.

If you want to keep your assets secure, and protection yourself from frivolous lawsuits, you should consider incorporating offshore.

Today forming a company offshore is not expensive. In fact, the price tag is under $2000 and is a sound investment for even the average person with money to protect.
