The U.S. dollar continues at highs against currencies around the world, including the British pound and the euro. Pundits are predicting more of the same. I’ve read and heard talking head after talking head calling for an ever-stronger Greenback. It reminds me of a few years ago, when those who try to crystal-ball this stuff […]
“What bank do you recommend in Panama?” That’s one of the most frequently asked questions I receive. I get it at least a couple of times a week… The honest answer? None. Panama currently has 78 banks. Of those, 29 have international licenses; 49, including the 2 government banks, have general licenses. I’ve dealt personally […]
Last weekend I hosted a small group of readers at my home in Medellín, Colombia. These Private Access members made the trip to Medellín to spend three days engaged in focused, private conversation with me and nine of my colleagues. We discussed the basics of internationalizing your life—banking, residency, citizenship, asset protection, structures, and investing, […]
When President Trump was elected to office, some readers wrote to say they’d decided to put their flag-planting efforts on hold.

When I first began talking about the idea of investing IRA funds offshore more than 15 years ago, people wrote to tell me I didn’t know what I was talking about. Couldn’t be done, they insisted… the IRS didn’t allow it. Today, an industry exists to help people take their IRAs offshore. Why would you […]
The offshore world is fast moving. Ever-changing legislation, regulation, incentives, bureaucracy, and market fundamentals mean that the best places to open an offshore bank account, base a business, or establish backup residency, for example, one month are not necessarily your top choices the next. As we stand at the start of New Year 2017, where […]
At the start of each New Year, I look back to see what new flags I’ve planted during the previous 12 months. I’ve been living an offshore lifestyle for nearly 25 years, but my flag planting doesn’t stop. It’s ever-evolving. In 2016, I finally took my own advice and set up a backup residency. My […]
