Offshore investment is a particular attraction in Andalucia due to its proximity to Gibraltar. The reason The Rock is referred to as "offshore" is simply because it is located in an advantageous tax jurisdiction.
Other well known offshore territories are The Channel Islands (Jersey and Guernsey), Isle of Man, Luxembourg and Switzerland. As a consumer, it is important to know that all of these territories are regulated by their own legislation, which may provide more - or less - investor protection, when compared with your country of residence.
There are a number of ways to become involved in the world of offshore investment. You can initiate your relationship through a bank, for example, or choose to work with a building society, stock/investment broker, or an IFA - Independent Financial Adviser.
Tax Advantages
Favourable tax laws are one of the primary attractions
of an offshore financial centre. For example, most offshore jurisdictions
offer no income, capital gains or inheritance tax for non-residents.
Furthermore, any income generated is often paid net of tax by the
institution you are dealing with.
More on Taxes
Before investing offshore, it is important that
you take independent tax advice. Also, keep in mind that it is up
to investors to declare taxes due to their country of residence,
and the legislation in that country may consider undeclared income
as a criminal offence.
