Description
Clients are concerned about their privacy in a new era of global transparency and anti-money laundering initiatives. They fear abuse by government and don’t trust the security of the automatic data exchange in light of never-ending news about data leaks and hacking. Some clients wish to move themselves or their assets to a ‘safer jurisdiction’. Is there such a thing, and if so, what are the obstacles for the clients and their advisors?
