Investment Company

Private funds pooled through an investment company can be put into investment instruments throughout the world, accumulating the returns and capital gains in a tax-free environment. Using a private investment company would provide additional confidentiality for the investors and tax benefits for the investment returns. While investments in many high tax countries would be subject to withholding tax at source or capital gains, there are still plenty of investment instruments where no such taxation would be applicable. Returns accumulated in a tax-free area would add flexibility to their distribution and re-investment.
