Corporations and high net worth individuals and their advisers nowadays often receive offers from many firms to form a company in offshore centre X or to establish one's domicile in offshore centre Y. What are the criteria to opt for X instead of Q, etc? An attempt to handle this problem of choice, is to apply the following tentative list of 15 criteria:
01. Political stability: we have it.
02. Just and predictable legislation: we have it.
03. Economic stability: we have it.
04. Good international business climate: we have it.
05. Competitive cost structure: we have it.
06. Good tax legislation for corporations and private persons: we have it.
07. Flexible corporate regimes: we have it.
08. Attractive tax climate: we have it.
09. Extensive double tax treaties network: we have it.
10. Good bank facilities and free movement of capital: we have it.
11. Good communication facilities: we have it.
12. Strategic location with good connections: we have it.
13. Confidentiality: we have it.
14. Highly trained eager and friendly multi-lingual and flexible work force: we have it.
15. Attractive visa program for non EU nationals: we have.
Compare The Netherlands with other business centres along these criteria and the result is: we have it. Come and get it!
Of course the final choice also depends very much on the circumstances of the case.
