About

Introduction

IFC News stands for International Financial Centre News.  International Financial Centre is the politically correct 2.0 name used for Offshore Financial Centres.

Offshore Financial Centres are locations in which financial services for non-nationals and non-residents are a predominant industry within the jurisdiction.  Conducting any work “offshore” simply means it is being conducted somewhere other than the country in which you are resident.

Generally speaking Offshore Financial Centres are low tax jurisdictions hence their attractiveness for international financial services.

That is why the most prominent story type for IFC News pertains to tax policy and government use (or in many cases misuse) of tax dollars.

As part of the exploration of tax, we review a number of factors that determine whether a country or business entity represents a good investment risk or not.  By centralizing data, creating indices, and conducting independent ratings and reviews in addition to the provision of tax and offshore jurisdiction news services, IFC News seeks to be a central location for the analysis of international tax and investment opportunities for the sophisticated investor or the international financial practitioner.
