Terms & Cond.

General
Confidentiality in your financial transacctions is a function of local laws more than of attempts to circumvent laws. Accordingly it is most important to work within the laws of the various juristictions available to you and ensure that the jurisdictions have the most favourable possible laws and some assurance of the longevity of these laws. Banking laws are much the same but are even more critical as the same laws which provide legitimate confidentiality to private citizens can be and are used by organised crime and petty dictators to launder monies gained illegally. Because of this there has been a great deal of pressure by the U.S. and EU, particularly on the Carribean jurisdictions, to increase the transparency of their banking and incorporation laws. As those countries are generally very dependent on the largesse of Britain and the U.S., they are finding it impossible to resist the pressure. Hence we are using facilities in other small countries which have aspirations to follow in Switzerland's tracks by being both confidential and ethical. This provides you with both the safety and confidentiality in which you are interested. Order Form.

Bank Accounts
Through our correspondant banks in Latvia and Bermuda we offer you full banking facilities while in Switzerland we offer you private banking services and the essential ability to manage your investments online.. Once your account is established you are able to bank on-line and conduct your business with full confidentiality. And the prices are very competitive with those you are accustomed to. There are no charges on inward remittances, no charges for movement between accounts within the bank (Ideal if you are working with suppliers or customers who have accounts in the same bank) and so forth. Your monies are always available via the normal mechanisms and, of course, the use of your debit card provides you with the perfect means of drawing money from your account in complete privacy so long as you take appropriate measures to ensure confidentiality from prying cameras mounted in some ATM's. We can also assist you in establishing bank accounts in less confidential jurisdictions such as the United States and Singapore. contact us for a quotation.Order Form

"Know Your Customer" Requirements
The awkening of the U.S. Government and the banking industry to the threat of global terrorism after the 9/11 catastrophe has meant that, among other things, a great deal more care would be taken regarding the international movement of funds. While a few rogue jurisdictions have ignored the global call for more care in acquiring clients, those which wish to maintain their international reputation have implemented various levels of "Know Your Customer" legislation. However, in spite of this, they have not lowered their barriers to ennquiry by other governments or private parties. In other words, KYC guidelines confer an obligation on the bank to understand their clients but they do not require that they change their realtionship with the outside world in relation to what they reveal about their clients. As part of oru service, we not only provide an introduction to the bank that best fits your needs, we help you in completing the forms so that you will be approved.

Nominees
We do not normally provide Nominee Directors or shareholders for your company. We feel that our methodology makes it possible for you to have your offshore company with adequate confidentiality without resorting to measures that will drive your costs up without providing commensurate benefits. Should you feel that you must have nominee directors anyway, contact us and we will make the arrangements for you. This will generally cost you about $350-450 but can be less depending on the jurisdicition. Order Form.
