For several decades, knowledgeable investors have discovered the advantage of using Switzerland for some of their offshore investments. It was apparent that it would be beneficial to move some of their assets offshore in order to take advantage of diversification, security, conservation of wealth, privacy, etc. The Swiss plans were also legal, seizure-proof, and without fees or Swiss taxes. Many of these advantages are unique and not found in Canadian or American plans. Unlike Canadian and US plans, one of the main advantages is that most Swiss annuities may be cancelled for the cash values, even after the commencement of the pay-out benefit! This flexibility is extremely desirable when estates change. We have recommended Swiss annuities in our estate and financial planning practice for several years. We found them to be safe, convenient, and one of the simplest methods of moving funds offshore. We provide free information and referrals to investor who may be interested in using Swiss annuities and guaranteed currency certificates as part of their financial plan. There are no fees. The Swiss Advantage is not an official representative or agent for any Swiss life insurance company, or Swiss investment counselor not registered in Canada. When suitable annuities or savings plans are found, then our practice is to refer the interested parties to the various Swiss brokers and Swiss life insurance companies through the appropriate channels. Our clients then may legally and confidentially deal directly with them if they wish. We have served investors with intuitive financial services for over 42 years. We know The Swiss Advantage will help you too! Although no tax is payable in Switzerland, Canadian tax laws require all "world-wide" income, gains, etc. be declared annually by the Canadian taxpayer. Should these offshore gains be declared? The Canadian tax system is based on self-assessment and voluntary compliance. Therefore, the answer depends on you. It is up to each investor to report any taxable gains etc.on their "world-wide" income. We always suggest that they do.
