With threats from EU-based governements on Switzerland bank account holders, where should small investors move their money to, or put it in gold? Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai?

You could consider Seychelles - An increasingly important Seychelles company/bank account ‘advantage’ is Seychelles being an independent country, ie not a British ‘possession’ (such as BVI, Anguilla, Turks & Caicos, Caymans, Isle of Man and Channel Islands) which are suffering from excessive regulatory tightening as a result of EU policy (which being British they are required to implement. We have Barclays Bank and BMI in Seychelles. If you require further info, you can reach me via www.carltonoffshore.com

My I suggest gold, the wealth protecting asset for thousands of years. ABC Bullion is offering offshore gold & precious metal purchases and storage in the "Switzerland of the Pacific" - Secure and Prosperous Australia. Australia the only OECD and G20 member country not to go into recession during the Global Financial Crisis. Australia even went into the GFC with ZERO national government debt. Australia being a G20 western nation with English as the national language and having one of the worlds' few gold trading markets is uniquely placed to act as a offshore gold & precious metals storage location. Australia has excellent travel links, communications and AAA rated banks with no currency controls. By being an Asia/Pacific financial hub and not being seen as an offshore location, wire transfers regardless of size, into out of Australia are very low profile and do not raise any red flags for tax authorities. ABC Bullion is offering physical precious metal storage accounts with no fees for individuals and companies world-wide, with the option of physical delivery or direct purchases. For complete details and application forms visit us at: www.abcbullion.com.au For news and views on the precious metals markets visit our blog at: ausbullion.blogspot.com

Rather than thinking in terms of jurisdictions whom have all agreed to one extent or another to share tax information you should consider a trust structure for holding assets and banking. We work with a 43 year old Swiss trust company that can open bank accounts in Central and is idea of the small to large investors. While clients have complete control over their accounts through Internet banking and debit cards, the trust serves as a buffer between the bank and the beneficial owner and in the event of a tax inquiry the bank will only release the name of the Swiss trust. While these structures can cost thousands this trust setup is less than 1000 Eur and clients do not pay anything until their very own account with unique account number and direct IBAN is setup as each client must fund their own account.

There are two more IFCs in Asia i.e. Labuan and Brunei which you can consider. As for bank account, why not consider one of the Chinese Banks outside China? So far Nicolas Sarkozy is not able to "touch" Hong Kong. voon@hansworldwide.com
