Tax Haven Blacklists and Offshore Accounts

There has been a lot of controversy surrounding the most recent g20 meetings and the blacklisted tax haven list that came out of the meeting.  The consensus among most is that the list was highly political and that it was nothing more than a tool to force compliance on those countries without protection from one of the g20.

Why so cyncical?  Well, primarily because despite the massive amount of offshore banking and offshore accounts located in the british dependencies, sacred cow middle european havens, and far east havens of hong kong, singapore, and macau, not ONE of these offshore havens was named in the blacklist.

I recently received this email from the people at capital conservator.  It sounds like they are in the process of creating another guide to going offshore.  If i can get my hands on some of the advance material I will post it here.

Here is the email I received:

A little banking privacy heads up…

The spotlight has been on bank secrecy recently,
and I thought as an e-course “insider” you should
be the first to know the real truth about
international financial privacy and “secrecy jurisdictions”.

Although the time leading up to the April Tax filing
will always be filled with offshore horror stories,
this year especially has seen unusual sabre-rattling.

Fortunately we’ve outlined the real truth behind
bank secrecy in a free pdf report

Specifically, what’s in store for offshore
tax havens after the latest wave of “offshore warfare”?

Will your privacy be affected by “Stop Tax Haven Abuse 2.0″?

Meanwhile the Capital Conservator engine
room is dreaming up a new e-book;
“The Blackbelt Guide To Offshore”
to be released in the next couple of months.

I’ll be honest, a load of our competitors
offshore don’t want “The Black Belt Guide”
released, it’s not the kind of information
that usually gets disseminated among “civilians”.

Keep your eyes peeled for updates
