If you know what you're doing, evading tax using offshore tax havens is fairly simple:
- John owns a carpet making company, Dallas Carpets
- He incorporates a shell company in the Cayman Islands, BS Ltd.
- BS Ltd. opens a bank account in Switzerland
- Dallas Carpets purchases 'services' (such as 'consultancy' or 'administrative services') from BS Ltd. & transfers the payment to Switzerland
- BS Ltd. invests the funds in assets (bonds, equities, mutual funds, etc.)
- Dallas Carpet’s costs increase, corporation tax decreases & BS Ltd. has tax-free financial capital income in the Swiss account.
Except for more coordinated reporting standards between the likes of the Cayman Islands & BVI and the US & UK, how on Earth can we tackle this?
