There are many reasons why people choose Offshore Investments. Firstly there is the potential benefit of Tax Deferral. This means that if you have chosen an Offshore Investment you might not have to pay tax on the interest that you may have earned on your money, until your funds have been brought back to the United Kingdom. Secondly you get to choose from funds and fund managers that are not available in the UK.

Which type of Offshore Investment is available?

There are many types of offshore investment vehicles available. These include Offshore unit trusts, OEICs (Open-ended investment companies), offshore redemption policies, offshore investment bonds and SICAVs (Société d’Investissement A Capital Variable), which are open-ended investment funds in which the capital amount in the fund varies according to the number of investors. The choice of offshore investment vehicles available is considerable, and it is our belief that taking Independent Financial advice when considering these is imperative.

So why should I consider Independent Financial Advice for my offshore investment?

Firstly, we have access to the huge international market, with banks, building societies, fund types and fund managers that are not available in the United Kingdom. This gives you a huge choice when looking to diversify your investment portfolio. Also, our advice is not restricted. What this means is that we can find a place for your money that offers you potentially the best return and a possible tax deferment, for your requirements and risk profile.

Secondly, as mentioned on our UK investment page, a recent survey by the Association of Independent Financial Advisers (AIFA), stated that Independent Financial Advisers (IFA’s) are consistently the most trusted of all Financial Services Institutions, and trust in IFA’s has increased over the last five years.
