Setting Up A Foundation
When planning any new offshore structure as a first step clients must take competent tax and legal advice in their jurisdictions of residence, citizenship and domicile. Other issues to be considered in connection with a foundation include:
- The assets to be transferred into the foundation
- The composition of the foundation council
- Any special provisions in the foundation regulations
- The practicalities of foundation administration
