Opis

Offshore Bank Licensing - Where and How - Regulatory changes during the early years of this millennium left merely a few Offshore Tax Havens that still welcome applications for new International Bank Licenses. Many jurisdictions have stopped accepting new applications altogether while others have decided to issue licenses exclusively to overseas branches and subsidiaries of internationally established banking groups. This book contains a compilation of banking laws and regulations from seven offshore jurisdictions that welcome new private bank startups and offer reasonable qualification and capital requirements. Minimum capital requirements start as low as $25K for a restricted Class B Banking License and from $250K for an unrestricted international license. Information is included about license classes, physical presence requirements and application procedure along with contact information for the regulatory authorities in each jurisdiction.
