Offshore Asset Protection

What is Offshore Asset Protection?
Offshore asset protection involves using legal structures in foreign jurisdictions to safeguard wealth from lawsuits, creditors, political instability, and other financial risks. It’s a legitimate strategy used by individuals and businesses to preserve assets, often as part of broader estate or wealth planning.

Offshore Asset Protection Trusts

Legal Separation: Assets are no longer held in your name, making them harder for claimants or courts to reach.
Protection from Creditors: Some jurisdictions require a very high standard of proof for a creditor to win a claim
Confidentiality: Many offshore jurisdictions do not require public disclosure of ownership or beneficial interest.
Diversification: Holding assets across different legal and geographic systems reduces overall risk.

Equity Stripping

What is Equity Stripping?
Equity stripping is a legitimate asset protection strategy used to reduce the exposed value of assets, such as real estate, in order to safeguard them from potential legal claims or financial threats. It’s commonly used as part of a broader wealth preservation or estate planning approach.

How Equity Stripping Works

Secured Liens or Loans: A mortgage, loan, or line of credit is placed against the asset, often from a related company or trust, reducing the asset’s visible equity.
Reduced Exposure: By limiting the apparent equity, the asset becomes less attractive to potential claimants or creditors.
Legal and Transparent: Properly structured, equity stripping follows all applicable laws and regulations.
Continued Use and Control: The asset owner retains full use and control of the asset while benefiting from the added layer of protection.
