Offshore asset protection or foreign asset protection is one of the ways to protect any type of assets from litigations. This also holds well, especially when managing bank accounts and brokerage accounts, that is, transferring assets to offshore trusts. But the process is not so simple.
Let us find out the procedure here and know the role of Nevis.
Once you create the offshore trust, you need to designate the trustees, settlers and beneficiaries. Nevis is an authority body, that licenses the trustee after checking the backgrounds, audits them too. If you are not satisfied with the trustee, just replace him.
There are certain advantages of Nevis Asset Protection. Nevis trustees are legally responsible to protect you for any missed out funds. You have options to control your investment as well as you can direct your trustee to do this for you.
One of the biggest advantages is that under Nevis guidance, your offshore trusts are out of creditor’s danger. Nevis does not value foreign country judgement. It has to be started in Nevis only to reach the assets. Rather to bring a lawsuit in Nevis the defendant need to deposit $25,000 cash to Nevis, which is again troublesome for many creditors.
Nevis trust laws have no limited period. So, you can say Nevis trust is a perfect estate plan.
