Hongkong is one of
the leading economical- and financial strongholds of the world. The
tax rate is at 17.5%. The tax rate is 17,5% but since Hongkong is
one of the exceptions where taxes are raised on a territorial basis,
following taxes are only to be paid on income which was attained in
Hongkong.
Additionally, another positive aspect distinguishes Hongkong from
other locations: legal persons (for instance offshore companies) may
be assigned the position of a manager. This leads to a maximum of
anonymity despite the formal registration in the public register.
The immense geographic distance as well as the membership of the
People’s Republic of China makes the exchange of information with
European authorities incredibly tedious, far too time-consuming and
difficult.
