Panama IBCA Panama IBC can provide legal protection of assets and identity. Panama offers some of the most strict banking and financial secrecy laws available in the world. A Panama IBC is the ideal jurisdiction for international investors and businessmen to operate an offshore corporation. Panama IBC law uses what we consider to be some of the most solid banking and corporate book secrecy laws in the world. These secrecy laws are engraved in its constitution. With Britain's proposed regulation for removal of bank and corporate book secrecy in Britain's offshore territories, it is clear that Panama remains the most secure offshore financial center - where privacy and confidentiality is not only respected, but also vigorously protected by constitutional law. Panama is a sovereign nation, that is, not governed or controlled by any other country in the world. Panama does not have any MLAT's (Mutual Legal Assistance Treaties) with any other country. Panama is a genuine international trade and banking center that is well known and respected throughout the world. Panama also offers the Panama Private Interest Foundation, which is one of the most useful asset protection and estate planning vehicles available today. The Panama Foundation is generally utilized by people who wish to control and maintain ownership of foreign corporations, however, they do not wish to do so directly due to the Controlled Foreign Corporation (CFC) rules in their home countries. Instead of holding the corporation's shares in their personal name or in bearer form, they establish a Private Interest Foundation in Panama that holds or owns the shares of their foreign corporation. The objective is to remove ownership from their personal name, to the name of a foreign entity whose ownership is anonymous. Panamanian S.A. Corporations Offer The Following Benefits:- Non-resident Panamanian Corporations (Panama IBC) do not pay Panamanian tax on income Banking or brokerage business conducted in Panama by non-resident Panamanian corporations is not considered actual trade within Panama.
