Small Business Administration
If there is such a thing as a “One Stop Center” for Business Ownership Resources,
then the SBA (Small Business Administration) is the closest thing going.
The SBA Loan is so common and so often sought after that most new and current business
owners fail to utilize the many other services available from this valuable resource.
Small Business
Although it is easier than ever to incorporate a business online, there is still a lot you need to know before diving into the process. For example:
- Three common business structures entrepreneurs often consider as they start their
businesses.
- Which structure “best” supports your needs?
- Does the owner wish to limit their personal liability?
- What type of taxation the owners’ desires?
Offshore Corporations Offer Many Advantages
There are many potential advantages to forming a corporation outside of your country of residence, where laws can be quite different from those in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. In fact, jurisdictions with favorable corporate laws compete with each other to attract an international clientele by catering to their asset protection and privacy needs. Online incorporation is often a popular method for forming offshore corporations.
Offshore business incorporation can:
- Safeguard the privacy of your corporation’s owners, officers and directors
- Shield your assets from lawsuits
- Provide non-recognition of foreign judgment
- Reduce your taxes (subject to the laws in your jurisdiction)
- Protect your confidentiality
- Offer the ideal structure in which to place an offshore back account
- Expand your corporation’s investment options
In addition, if you own multiple offshore corporations you may be able to transfer funds between them
