Every offshore financial
centre has its own individuality, its particular
characteristics that make it suitable for one
purpose and not for another. So, looking for
the right offshore jurisdiction is just a matter
of comparison? Yes, but it's not so easy: in
Europe alone, there are at least a dozen candidates
- each one wants your business and sets out
its stall in the most attractive terms. Advisers
likewise tend to have links with particular
jurisdictions, they may even have offices there,
and find it difficult to be objective.
On
the other hand, there is the stream of negative
propaganda about offshore jurisdictions issuing
from the OECD and its FAFT (Financial Action
Task Force), the G7's FSF (Financial Stability
Forum), the EU and its member states. Oh, but
hang on, isn't Gibraltar a member of the EU?
It is, but that doesn't stop the criticism -
Gibraltar represents a threat to the revenues
of the EU's larger, high-taxing states, and
they defend themselves!
Using
the experiences of a fictional company, Peyton
Media Group, and its 'dotcom' spin-off, PayTechPublishing
('PayTech'), the Lowtax Gibraltar Report sets
out to analyse the suitability of Gibraltar
as an e-commerce location. The Report will be
useful to every company considering the switch
to e-commerce, and uncertain whether or not
to 'go offshore'.
