Introduction
to the Types of Alternative Investment
The four
types of offshore investment covered in this section
can obviously overlap, but they correspond to some extent
to four types of investor. Here they are described without
too much reference to investor type: see The
InvestorsOffshore.com DIY
Investment Selector
for information regarding the types of investment that
are suitable for different investor profiles according
to residential situation.
Each section
contains information about investment characteristics,
details of how to invest, and links to investment providers.
Generally
speaking, this section is addressed to individuals with
disposable wealth of between $100,000 and $5m. Within
this range, it is likely that an individual will take
a keen personal interest in the investment process,
but will work to some extent in partnership with advisers
of one stripe or another. Below $100,000, it is less
likely that offshore investment is the right way to
go, and the overhead associated with outside personal
attention is probably too great to give the best result,
while above $5m, it's likely that professional advisers
will come to play the major role, with the individual
taking more of a back seat. Of course, these are just
generalisations.
