Savory & Partners; St. Kitts & Nevis offshore banking and trusts: your optimal asset protection tools Citizenship by investment has always been the ultimate Plan B, a failsafe that protects against economic and political turbulence. It is for this reason, among many others such as enhanced global mobility, that many of the world's elite opt to obtain a St. Kitts & Nevis passport through investment. But the twin-island nation offers more in terms of risk mitigation, especially in terms of asset protection.

What is Offshore Banking?

Offshore banking refers to opening a bank account in a foreign nation. Offshore banking comes with a multitude of benefits such as: Simplifying International Business Offshore banks make international transfers and closing global business deals simple. Offshore banks in St. Kitts & Nevis are not bound by restrictions many countries face in terms of conducting business with certain nations, and allow for smooth transactions.

Ultimate Security & Privacy High-net-worth individuals are always targeted by the media and taxation bodies to reveal their wealth to the public. Offshore banks in Nevis have complete privacy, and are in fact quite exclusive. Opening a bank account in Nevis not only protects your assets through a robust financial framework, but also provides high levels of secrecy.

Crypto-Friendly Trading St. Kitts & Nevis is one of the world's most crypto-friendly nations in the world. Those looking to invest in cryptocurrency can do so through an offshore bank in the Caribbean country, which incidentally boasts a multitude of Bitcoin ATMs throughout its cities.

What Are Offshore Trusts?

Offshore trusts are the ultimate asset protection tool. A trust is a framework upon which the investors (trustor) shifts all ownership of certain assets to the trust manager (trustee) along with a letter of orders on how to use or distribute the funds to any third party (beneficiaries).

Complete Asset Protection by shifting ownership of assets to a trust no one can come and take them from you. They cannot take what you do not have. But, at the same time, through your instructions (trust deed), you maintain full control over your assets. No court or creditor can force you to terminate the trust and pay them, because you do not technically own the assets.

Protection Against Lawsuits For a creditor to take money from your trust, they need to sue the trust itself. Doing that in St. Kitts & Nevis can prove a torrid task, as anyone who wants to file a legal claim against a trust in St. Kitts & Nevis must: Deposit a 25,000 USD bond with the government before filing a claim Complete legal action within one year of the claim Sue a foreign entity in a foreign land run under common law Prove wrongdoing beyond any reasonable doubt, which is a burden of proof regularly left for criminal cases elsewhere, not civil ones.

Savory & Partners is an accredited agent for multiple governments where citizenship by investment is offered. Founded in 1797, the agency has evolved from pharmaceuticals to family assets and legacy protection through second citizenship and residency.

The company's professional, multinational staff is made up of expert advisors who have guided thousands of clients, including many North African investors, on their journey to find the most suitable CBI program for them.
