This resembles ordering a new car - by installing certain optional equipment the vehicle gets safer, more comfortable and more useful. It is important to choose the right configuration that suits you best. There is no universal recipe - each person and his business situation are different. What suits one client perfectly can be dangerous for another. A properly configured and managed offshore company can provide substantial tax benefits, protect assets, improve business efficiency, reduce costs and maintain confidentiality. An improperly configured offshore company is a recipe for disaster for the owner and his business. The necessity for some or all of the optional services will always depend on the actual circumstances of each individual client, and his business. These options should best be considered before placing an order for incorporation, although their integration at a later stage is also possible. In the following descriptions there will be frequent references to "Client". For the purposes of this review, the "Client" means the real, beneficial owner of the company or the person who has requested us (the Agent) to form the company, or any other persons whom the beneficial owner has designated or involved in the company structure in any capacity, all such persons being independently introduced by the client himself and NOT controlled or employed by us (the Agent). GROUND LEVEL - BASIC COMPANY This is the simplest configuration available. A Basic Company would only have the minimum of services provided. Apart from registering the company in the first place and preparing its documents, the only ongoing services are the Registered Address and Resident Secretary. Registered Address and Resident Secretary are the mandatory minimum domiciliation services. Any company registered in Gibraltar is required by the law to have a local address (Registered Address) and a legal agent in its country of incorporation. The Resident Secretary essentially serves as an intermediary between the owner of the company and the Gibraltar Government. In this capacity the Secretary arranges for the formal annual renewal of the Company with the Government Registrar. This service is provided by us as standard. Without it, the company can not legally exist. Shareholder. In a Basic Company, the actual Client would be directly registered as the Shareholder and the Director. Thus, the client would clearly and publicly appear as the owner and controller of the company. The information of who are the registered shareholders and directors of the company is not confidential! In Gibraltar, this information is directly filed at the Registrar of Companies, showing the names, addresses, nationalities and occupations of the registered shareholders and directors. The files at the Registrar of Companies are available for inspection by anyone. So, it is public information, freely available. Such total lack of owner confidentiality may cause several legal problems. Being directly registered as a shareholder to an offshore company makes the person clearly linked to that company. This may cause punitive taxation if such offshore company enters into business with the domestic company of the same client (the concept of "related enterprises"). It may also involve the client being requested to report and pay tax on his personal income from such foreign shareholding. Director. With a Basic Company the client would also serve as a Company Director. In this official capacity the actual client would fully and personally operate the company - sign in bank accounts, issue invoices, sign all contracts and correspondence. Similarly as with being a shareholder, serving as a Director to an offshore company raises serious legal problems. Again, the offshore company may be considered as legally "related" to the domestic firm of the client. Serving as a Director of an offshore company raises the important legal question of the place of management and control of the company. Many high-tax countries will consider that any company becomes taxable where it is managed and controlled - and this is usually where the company Directors resides. So, if the client serves as a Director of an offshore company, he may be requested that his offshore company reports and pays full domestic tax on its worldwide income. This would usually defeat the whole purpose of having an offshore company. Communications. With a Basic Company the client would be unable to use the address of the Company for receiving or sending out any routine business correspondence, because the Registered Address is not intended for that purpose. The Registered Address does not include any local telephone or fax number for use by the Company. Therefore, the owner of such Company would have to use his own personal or business facilities to conduct correspondence for his offshore business. This could facilitate confusion and would also clearly identify the Company as really "offshore". While having all of these drawbacks, the Basic Company may still be useful for some self-employed globally-mobile individuals who would use the offshore company merely as a separate corporate body to conduct their international activities. In some circumstances such owners may afford not be concerned about being openly registered as shareholders and directors of an offshore company. In these special cases, they would enjoy minimum maintenance cost and a very straightforward company structure. For anyone else a proper management system of the offshore company should be established. This can include the services of a third-party shareholder, a third-party director, an account signatory and various communications services. OPTIONAL SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS

NOMINEE SHAREHOLDER

How it works? The shares in the company are formally registered in the name of an unrelated third party - a nominee, provided by us. It would usually be another corporate body (a company), wholly controlled by ourselves, created and licensed solely for this purpose. Client security is maintained by special additional documents which clearly establish the real ownership rights. Such documents may include a comprehensive management services agreement, a trust declaration or a pre-issued set of share certificates and share transfer forms. These documents remain strictly confidential Results A nominee shareholder shields and protects the client during any possible public inquiry from showing up as the owner of the company. Thus, the client is formally distanced from his offshore company at the ownership level. At the same time, the client can prove himself as the owner of the company whenever he chooses, by way of producing the supporting confidential documentation

THIRD-PARTY DIRECTOR

How it works? A third party, provided by us and licensed to undertake this activity, is registered and serves as Company Director. It can either be a private individual, or a corporate body (management company). Depending on clients' business circumstances, the Director would carry out various regular tasks for the Company - like preparation and issue of documents, correspondence, invoicing. At the same time functions of the company management can, if necessary, be flexibly assigned to the client personally, by means of Powers of Attorney or Resolutions. Client security and control is maintained by special additional documents. Such documents may include a comprehensive company management agreement and a pre-issued letter of resignation. These documents remain strictly confidential. Results A person, unrelated to client, appears as Company Director during any possible public inquiry. Therefore the client does not fall into the "management and control" trap by his home-country taxation. Further regular involvement of the third-party Director in the actual business of the Company will sustain the independent operational image of the Company. At the same time, the client can prove himself as the actual controller of the company whenever he chooses, by way of producing the supporting confidential documentation.

ACCOUNT SIGNATORY

How it works? A third-party Director also acts as a signatory in a Company bank account, operating under instructions received from the client. This function is carried out under the general framework of the third-party Director service. The underlying client security documentation is the same. Instructions are provided by the client to the Director in a pre-agreed and secured form of transmission. Results The bank account is the most vulnerable element of the Company. This is because any hostile inquiry will primarily focus on the financial trail of the Company and on persons who control these funds. Under some legal circumstances the banks may divulge account information; therefore it is not wise to rely solely on the concept of bank secrecy. If the person having the signatory right in the bank happens to be the real client, it's a clear link and evidence towards his actual control of the Company itself. By engaging the services of the third-party Director to act as account signatory, the client becomes completely protected from revealing himself as the actual beneficial owner of the Company. To any outside parties, the Client appears completely unrelated to the Company and his confidentiality is fully protected. At the same time, the client can prove himself as the actual controller of the company whenever he chooses, by way of producing the supporting confidential documentation.

VIRTUAL OFFICE FACILITY

How it works? The Company has an operational business address in the country of incorporation, including fax and telephone. Mail and phone messages are received and handled for the Company. Documents can be prepared and re-mailed according to the instructions of the Client. The services of mail & fax forwarding, document re-mailing and telephone confirmation can be ordered separately, at any time during or after the incorporation. Results A company without a proper street address, telephone and fax number looks shady and incompetent. Operating from a different address - like, from the Clients' home - looks suspicious, too, and may involve adverse tax and legal consequences. Virtual Office facility solves this problem - the offshore company acquires an image of reality and competence. Mailed and faxed correspondence can be received and dealt with safely and confidentially. Telephone calls will confirm the existence of the Company at the given address. For all third parties, the Company will appear to be completely real and ground-based in the country of registration.   NOTES ON DUE DILIGENCE (KNOW YOUR CLIENT) RULES For many years some clients of offshore jurisdictions would expect to form an offshore company, appoint nominee directors and then be given complete control of the company's activities so that the offshore service provider would know nothing of the company's activities. The advent of the modern legislation to prevent money laundering has caused significant change in this business over the last few years. Today, the offshore corporate manager will need to be completely informed of the identities of his clients and the nature and details of their business. The logic and reason behind this is quite simple -offshore companies have been used in the past by terrorists, drug traffickers and corrupt politicians to facilitate their illegal doings. To help prevent this from happening, the offshore service provider needs to get acquainted with the activities of his clients. At the outset the offshore service provider will ask for comprehensive proof of the clients' identities and contact details. Thereafter - especially if more advanced offshore services are ordered - the offshore manager will ascertain the client's goals and will also need to assure itself that a particular structure is not being set up to engage in or hide the proceeds of fraud, corruption and all other types of criminal activity. The manager will also check that proposed activities are not "sensitive", even if legal, for example arms trading. Having established the client's intentions the manager will then agree how a company will operate. If the offshore service provider is to provide such advanced services as third-party Director or account signatory, it is important for the client to understand that the offshore Directors' liabilities are exactly the same as those of any other director. On an ongoing basis the directors are responsible for the good governance of the Company. Therefore, full co-operation with the Client is essential. Atrium Offshore is licensed to provide all of the offshore company management services as described above.     OFFSHORE INCORPORATION SERVICES COMPANY FORMATION & MANAGEMENT SERVICES TAX PLANNING AND ASSET PROTECTION SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS COMPANIES HOLDING COMPANIES PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANIES LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES LIMITED LIABILITY PARTNERSHIPS TRUSTS PRIVATE & FAMILY FOUNDATIONS BANK FORMATION PANAMANIAN LICENSED FINANCIAL CORPORATIONS NEW ZEALAND OFFSHORE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS SECURE & CONFIDENTIAL NOMINEE STRUCTURES INCORPORATION IN EUROPE AND MAJOR INTERNATIONAL OFFSHORE CENTRES OFFSHORE BANKING WORLDWIDE FULL SERVICED VIRTUAL OFFICES FREE CONSULTANCY info@atrium-incorporators.com Atrium's Newsletter
