Offshore investing is one of the most popular uses of offshore companies, offshore trusts, offshore private interest foundations, etc.  These offshore entities facilitate international offshore investment providing several useful benefits: privacy, ease of transference of assets, access to otherwise unavailable investments due to restrictions in the home country, lower administration costs, simplified reporting (or none at all) and low or zero taxes on capital gains, interest and dividends.  Offshore companies can be used to hold international investments such as real estate, equities, commodities, CDs, high yield savings accounts and structured deposits.  An increasingly popular option is to open an offshore brokerage account in the name of the offshore company to enable trading of international stocks, options, commodities, forex, mutual funds and bonds all from one account.

Astute investors achieve returns and diversify their portfolios by adopting an international investment approach.  Often times these investors choose to hold their international portfolio in one or more offshore structures in order to provide anonymity, tax savings and access to otherwise unavailable investments due to restrictions in their own countries.

International real estate offers one of the best hedges against inflation available and are a popular investment category for those looking to establish an offshore company or other offshore structure.

By adopting an international investment portfolio one can also hedge against fluctuations in currencies. Offshore investments can be made in a variety of currencies allowing one to be shielded or even benefit from changes in currencies.
