Banking
Everyone needs banking
services, and offshore
provides lots of extra options, whether you invest there
or live there. Nowadays of course if your bank provides
Internet banking, as almost all of them do, you may not
need to change your bank simply because you go offshore.
But if you live offshore, you may find that local banks
will offer you services such as lending which your 'legacy'
home bank may not be willing to provide.
Then there is the question of private
banking. Despite recent horror stories emanating from
Switzerland,
Germany
and the USA,
if you stick to the rules there is plenty to be gained from
personalized banking. If you have been subject to the strait-jacket
forced on you by 'high-street' banks, you will be amazed
at the flexibility and level of service provided by 'private'
banks.
