San Jose, Costa Rica (PRWEB) May 10, 2007 -- In the past people often
wondered at the wisdom of situating businesses or personal assets in
offshore jurisdictions, assuming that such endeavors were best left to
persons of shady character who had something to hide from the law.
According to the wisdom of this logic, the law in its entirety is
supposed to protect the interests of the people and thus no one should
be afraid of it.
Recent legislations however have left the public wondering whether the
laws passed at the legislative level have more to do with the
interests of the people or more to do with the growing power of
lobbyists promoting the interests of their backers. On paper,
countries like the United States claim to be in sup****t of
international trade but their very actions on the world stage show
aversion to anything international that does not benefit the power
groups in Wa****ngton.
Online gambling is one such venture where legislation and the move by
the United States to clamp down on offshore gaming havens show no
indication of popular sup****t whatsoever. The law allows us to visit
Las Vegas annually and spend billions of dollars but shows some
deference when we choose to spend our money from the comfort of our
homes by playing Blackjack over the Internet. A number of new
legislations like tax laws are no different either, they often only
serve to protect the larger cor****ate entities rather than the smaller
ones which are trying to expand their market share.
The recent victory of Antigua over the United States at the World
Trade Organization in respect to online gambling has revealed a lot to
the business world. An article: 'US Admits Defeat in Antigua Gambling
Case at the WTO' freely available over the Internet, has further
underscored the need and im****tance of looking beyond the borders when
structuring both business and personal affairs.
Offshore location of business and personal assets guarantees not only
asset protection but tax advantages and more im****tantly, the
op****tunity for growth.
Ron Z. Mendelson, Managing Partner of offshoreXplorer.com states "The
power of technology and the flexibility of e-commerce have shown that
irrespective of where a business is located, its resources can be
deployed effectively on a global level. Business owners stand to
benefit from this fact and the multiple advantages offered by locating
their businesses offshore."
However despite the advantages, venturing into offshore jurisdictions
without the benefit of sound advice is not something that should be
done without consultation. Offshore business specialists should be
consulted in order to provide business owners with the best offshore
locations for their businesses, the benefits as well as the prevailing
conditions in these jurisdictions.
