Where Is Anguilla?

0n the outer rim of the New Continent, as far East as you can go in the Caribbean's, pulsing under the gentle rays of the generous sun lies Anguilla, bathed in light while the 75% of world slumbers in the darkness. Perhaps thanks to the privileged situation of Anguilla, at the crossroads between three Continents and three cultures, the rhythm of life is relaxed, unhurried and the people warmhearted and open. It is difficult not to be caught up in the magic of Anguilla: island which transport you with its natural beauty into another world, lost in Time.

The natural beauty is the island's main attraction, but there are many ways to enjoy it. Anguilla have private charters for sailing our waters and the neighboring islands and cays. Activities such as snorkeling and scuba diving, bike and moped rentals are all available for a reasonable fee.

Anguilla's eastern breeze keeps the island cool and dry. A delightful Caribbean sun warms the sand and water to a temperature just right for sunbathing and swimming all year round.

Anguilla is probably the best kept secret in the Caribbean. There are no fewer than 33 glorious white sand beaches with some of the most luxurious resorts and hotels. If it is a quiet beach time you are seeking Anguilla is the place for you. The Island is discovered by many visitors and celebrities as a haven of tranquility. However you can enjoy the best of both worlds as a 20 minute ferry ride connects you with cosmopolitan St. Martin with its designer boutiques and French Creole nouvelle cuisine.

Why Anguilla?

The granting of a Banking License is discretionary: it is a privilege to be extended or withheld - it is not a right of any applicant. The key point of control in the regulation of the banking sector is when an application is being considered by the Licensing Authority. Applicants should understand that the proper investigation of their application may take some time and they should plan accordingly.

The supervision of banks engaged in cross-border operations requires close ongoing co-operation between the respective national supervisory authorities. Overseas Territories have taken steps to ensure that legal gateways exist within their banking legislation to permit a free exchange of regulatory information with other recognized banking supervisory authorities where such information will assist those authorities in carrying out their responsibilities.

LICENSING POLICY

The policy with respect to bank licensing, and except where the bank is predominantly locally owned and primarily doing business in the territory and those banks in Anguilla and Montserrat which are the subject to supervision by the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, is as follows:

full banking activities will only be permitted by branches or subsidiaries of banks with a well established and proven track record and which are subject to effective consolidated supervision by their home supervisory authority.

off-shore banking will only be permitted by:

  • Branches or subsidiaries of banks with a well established and proven track record which are subject to effective consolidated supervision;
  • Banks which, although not subsidiaries, are closely associated with an overseas bank, and which, by agreement, will be included within the consolidated supervision exercised by the overseas bank’s home supervisory authority;
  • wholly-owned subsidiaries of acceptable non-bank corporations whose shares are quoted on a recognized stock exchange, where the objective of the subsidiary is to undertake in-house treasury operations only, and where such operations are fully consolidated within the published financial statements of the parent company.

Banks will only be granted licenses if their place of incorporation, mind and management are within the same jurisdiction, or, in the case of a subsidiary, if the mind and management are located in the jurisdiction in which consolidated supervision is being exercised.

In line with internationally accepted good practice in relation to bank license applications, the Licensing Authority should expect as minimum to be satisfied that:

  1. The management has proven experience in a relevant field of banking;
  2. The controllers are fit and proper people to undertake the functions envisaged and that the ongoing management will be competent;
  3. The institution will conduct its business in a prudent fashion;
  4. The institution has devised an appropriate and sustainable business plan;
  5. Adequate capital and other resources will be provided in relation to that business plan;
  6. Direct confirmation has been received from the supervisory authority in the country in which the institution or its proposed parent is incorporated, that the authority;

    1- Consents to the establishment of the institution in the host territory;

    2- Will exercise consolidated supervision over the institution’s overall activities, including within the host territory; and

    3- Will cooperate fully in the sharing of regulatory information with the Licensing Authority.

  7. The applicant will appoint approved auditors who will perform audit work according to internationally accepted auditing standards.

    The applicant will disclose to the Licensing Authority all information that the latter legitimately needs to fulfill its overall supervisory responsibilities.

A prerequisite for the maintenance of sound banking standards is careful consideration of the financial standing, overall probity, skills and reputation of new banking applicants. To this end, in addition to obtaining the formal consent referred to in paragraph 5, the Licensing Authority will consult parent supervisory authorities about these aspects in relation to each new applicant seeking to establish a bank in the territory. This consultation is an essential part of the Authority’s duty to cooperate with other supervisory bodies.

Any subsequent change of ownership once the license has been granted, will require the prior approval of the Licensing Authority and will be subject to independent verification and checking by the Authority, similar in scope to that required of the original applicant.

The ordinance applies to all confidential information of a business of a professional nature and stipulates heavy fines on persons or companies wrongfully divulging such information without proper authority.

In Anguilla
It Is Exactly

Anguilla;
The Bullet Proof Jurisdiction

confidential_2

“Anguilla may be on it’s way to becoming a very viable tax-haven. It offers a zero-tax jurisdiction. No corporate, income, or resident taxes are levied for residents, nor for non-residents who use an Anguillan bank to engage in international business.”

LANGUAGE: The official and spoken language is English.

CURRENCY: Eastern Caribbean (EU) dollar.

EXCHANGE CONTROL: There are no Foreign Exchange controls, and the US dollar circulates freely throughout the economy. Bank accounts can be maintained in US dollars in either personal or corporate savings accounts, checking accounts, CD’s, or other investment instruments.

TYPE OF LAW: Anguilla’s legal system is based upon English Common Law, with local modifications. The judiciary is independent of the Executive and Legislative branches, and is fully independent of political influence. Anguilla has, since 1992 (and specifically in 1994), introduced and adopted numerous pieces of modern financial service legislation. These laws were drafted with the involvement of all elected legislators, with the advice of the private sector practitioners, and the consent of British Government representatives.

A Tax Haven In The Heaven

Documents you will receive on completion:

  • Certificate of the opened foreign currency Correspondent A/C as well as a receipt for the foreign currency account issued by Anguilla Bank.
  • Certificate of inscription (registration) in the Companies Register.
  • Memorandum of Association of the bank.
  • Articles of Association.
  • License as proof for conducting banking and other financial activities.
  • Certified English copy of the above legalized with a Anguilla respected law office.
Mailing, Fax, Telephone And Office Facilities: As part of the domiciliary service fee we provide clients with a registered office address in the country of incorporation but clients may find it convenient to arrange for mail forwarding, fax and telephone facilities through our Switzerland, The Bahamas Islands, London or other Petro Funds world-wide offices. This service may be especially useful where, for example, the company is opening bank accounts. Normally the bank would address statements and other correspondence to the company at the address of the client but this results in a loss of confidentiality in that the connection between the company name and the client will be automatically made.

To safeguard against this mail can be directed to our offices and we can re-mail those letters in a plain envelope addressed to the client or otherwise as the client directs. An additional advantage of using our re-mailing services is that the provision of a re-mailing address through one of our prestigiously located offices in the onshore jurisdictions may allow the offshore company to appear to be domiciled on-shore and thereby give that company an added degree if respectability.

For example, your offshore company could quote Petro Funds London office address on its letterhead and thereby appear to be domiciled in the UK. This procedure is particularly attractive if the Hong Kong address is used as a Hong Kong company is not required to quote its registered office address on its letterhead. Thus if an offshore company were to quote a Hong Kong address it would be indistinguishable from the letterhead, from a normal Hong Kong trading company.The charge for this service is only $275 per annum.

Trust Services: Using a trust to own the shares of an offshore company can result in very substantial tax and non-tax related advantages which will accrue both on death and during the lifetime of the trust settler. These advantages may include:

Saving Of Inheritance Tax: On death, the Inheritance tax which would normally be assessed on the value of shares would generally be eradicated.

Asset Protection: Assets placed into trust are generally beyond the reach of creditors who might arise as a result of financial difficulties, divorce proceedings, litigation, etc.

Avoidance Of Probate: A trust provides a means whereby assets can be smoothly passed on to the next generation without the disruption, delays substantial costs, loss of confidentiality associated with the probate procedure which necessarily follows when assets are bequeathed by will.

Continuity: Trusts provide a means whereby assets can continue to be administered in accordance with the wishes of the settlor after his death so the weak can be protected from others and the spend-thrift can be protected from himself.

Lifetime Tax Savings: During lifetime, substantial income and capital gains tax advantages may result from setting up the trust. Using the service of one of our licensed trust companies, we are pleased to act as trustee for a suitably drafted discretionary trust and the cost of this service would be from US$500 for setting up the trust deed and from US$500 per annum for the provision of trustee services.
