Offshore Banks

How to open accounts with offshore banks? How do foreign banks work? Which banks are the best in a particular country? Look for answers to these questions and more in this section of the InternationalWealth portal.

Diversifying your assets into a foreign (offshore) bank in the 21st century is not a whim, but a dire necessity for many people. Keeping all your money in one bank and even one country is a bit like putting all your eggs in one basket. And that basket is then constantly twisted on a long rope over your head in a room full of hard and sharp objects!

The distribution of assets across different economies, legal systems and on different conditions helps to reduce the risks of a one-time loss of savings. Plus, it opens up additional opportunities: investments abroad, education, travel, residence permit / permanent residence, citizenship by investment and more.

The InternationalWealth portal brings together a professional team of experts that helps entrepreneurs and other interested parties to open bank accounts around the world: with a personal visit or remotely. We offer a free consultation on the selection of an offshore bank account for individuals and companies.
