IBC or International Business Company or as it is also called international business corporation basically is an offshore company which is usually formed under the laws of some jurisdictions worldwide as a tax-neutral company meaning that it is not taxable in the country of incorporation. It is also limited in direct business activity it may conduct while operating within the context of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated.
Meaning and main functions of IBC Often IBC features can vary by jurisdiction, however, usually they include business data confidentiality, ability to issue shares, provision for a local registered agent or office and exemption from local corporate taxation as the majority of offshore jurisdictions have removed or are processing the removal of IBCs from local taxation while reducing corporate tax to zero in order to avoid damaging the whole offshore finance industry.
Such companies in general are incorporated for offshore banking, making international investments, asset protection, real estate and intellectual property ownership and other business activities related to international trade.
A list of jurisdictions offering IBC as a business structure As it is stated in Streber Weekly, there are plenty of jurisdictions offering IBC as a business structure. The list of such jurisdictions is pretty long: Antigua and Barbuda, Anguilla, Barbados, Bahamas, Belize, Brunei, British Virgin Islands or BVI, Cook Islands, Comoros, Dominica, Grenada, Gambia, Mauritius, Marshall Islands, Monsterrat, Nauru, Saint Lucia, Samoa, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Seychelles and Vanuatu. This list contains most of the jurisdictions without taking into account their worldwide reputation. Some popular offshore jurisdictions which weren't mentioned before offer territorial taxation and other tax incentives instead of offering IBCs. These business structures can be operating as exempt companies, free zone companies or non-resident companies etc. while lacking the ease of IBC companies: Panama, Hong Kong, Cayman Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI), United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bermuda.
For example, Panama's jurisdiction, in general, is suitable for International Foundation or IBC in terms of asset protection. Hong Kong jurisdiction in general is also suitable for international trade due to favorable taxation regime as it imposes no withholding tax, capital gains tax, tax on investment income, VAT and other sorts of taxes.
Most reputable jurisdictions for IBCs British Virgin Islands (BVI) is referred to as world's leading offshore business center with more than 450,000 operating companies registered in its territory. It is often called the grandfather of all IBCs. International international business companies have a rather good reputation among other jurisdictions of such kind due to the ability to transfer domicile and privacy of ownership for assets collected inside of the company. In general BVI provide flexible, low-cost and prompt services for international offshore companies' incorporation.
Seychelles can be alternatives to BVI offshore companies as this jurisdiction offer ease of administration, simplicity and privacy as well. In addition, IBC is the most widely used type of company incorporated on islands with more than 175,000 companies registered there. The IBCs of this jurisdiction are commonly used as consultancy and personal service companies as well as Holding Companies shares, real estate and equities.
Bahamas is one of the oldest offshore jurisdictions, considered to be a classic one as the BVI mentioned before as it is an independent and politically stable which has an improving reputation and is gambling friendly.
St. Kitts and Nevis has decent reputation while being also politically stable and having average to low costs. However, this jurisdiction is more popular for its Limited Liability Companies (LLC).
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines has merely low costs. It is quite politically stable with good reputation which has improved in recent years because of the gaining popularity due to financial operations carried out by Euro Pacific Bank and Loyal Bank.
Belize is also a great place for IBC formation. In frames of this jurisdiction IBC can be used with the purpose of international trade, asset protection, offshore banking, owning real estate, e-business or any other financial services.
Such IBCs are suitable for business transactions globally as well as making deposits and managing offshore investments such as bonds, mutual funds, stocks and other types of business services, while providing consulting and such professional services as management, corporate credit cards ownership, covering legitimate expenses etc.

The linguistic diversity of Kyrgyzstan is rather diverse according to a fractionalization scale which for Kyrgyzstan is 0.5949. The median age is approximately 25.7 years. Life expectancy in Kyrgyzstan is 69. The female fertility rate in Kyrgyzstan is 4. Around 16% of the population of Kyrgyzstan are obese. The ethnic diversity is rather diverse according to a fractionalization scale which for Kyrgyzstan is 0.6752. To find out specifics of language, religion, age, gender distribution, and advancement of people in Kyrgyzstan see the sections below, as well as visit the section concerning the education in the country.
Population In Kyrgyzstan, the population density is 29.5 people per square kilometer (77 per square mile). Because of this statistic, this country is considered to be sparsely populated. The total population of Kyrgyzstan is 6,132,932 people. Kyrgyzstan has approximately 226,960 foreign immigrants. Immigrants in Kyrgyzstan represent 0.1 percent of the total number of immigrants in the world. Immigrants in Kyrgyzstan represent 4.6 percent of the total number of immigrants in the world. The ethnic diversity of Kyrgyzstan is rather diverse according to a fractionalization scale based on ethnicity. Ethnic fractionalization (EF) deals with the number, sizes, socioeconomic distribution, and geographical location of distinct cultural groups, usually in a state or some otherwise delineated territory. Specific cultural features might refer to language, skin color, religion, ethnicity, customs and traditions, history, or other distinctive criteria, alone or in combination. Frequently, these features are used for social exclusion and the monopolization of power. The index of ethnic fractionalization in Kyrgyzstan is 0.6752. This means that there is a relatively high number of unique ethnic groups in Kyrgyzstan. EF is usually measured as 1 minus the Herfindahl concentration index of ethnolinguistic group shares, which reproduces the probability that two randomly drawn individuals from the population belong to different groups. The theoretical maximum of EF of 1 means that each person belongs to a different group. Read below for statistics of Kyrgyzstan on median age and gender distribution at various ages.
Age The median age is approximately 25.7 years. The median age for men is 24.7, while the median age for women is 26.7.
Gender The sex ratio, or the number of males for each female (estimated at birth), is 1.05. It can be further divided into the following categories: sex ratio under 15 - 1.04; sex ratio from 15 to 64 - 0.96; sex ratio over 64 - 0.64; total sex ratio - 0.96. Total sex ratio is different from sex ratio estimated at birth. This is due to the fact that some newborns are considered in the sex ratio estimated at birth but pass away within the first weeks of their life and are not included in the total sex ratio.
Religion The majority religion of Kyrgyzstan is Islam, the followers of which comprise 88% of all religious believers in the country. Islam (Arabic: الإسلام) is a monotheistic and Abrahamic religion articulated by the Quran, a religious text considered by its adherents to be the verbatim word of God (Allāh), and, for the vast majority of adherents, by the teachings and normative example (called the sunnah, Arabic سنة, composed of accounts called hadith, Arabic حديث) of Muhammad, considered by most of them to be the last prophet of God. An adherent of Islam is called a Muslim. Besides Islam, there are some followers of folk religions in Kyrgyzstan. The religious diversity of Kyrgyzstan is diverse according to a fractionalization scale based on the number of religions in Kyrgyzstan. The index of religious fractionalization in Kyrgyzstan is 0.447. This score means that within the country there is one major religion and several other minor beliefs.
General development Kyrgyzstan is considered to be a developing nation. The developmental stage of a nation is determined by a number of factors including, but not limited to, economic prosperity, life expectancy, income equality, and quality of life. As a developing nation, Kyrgyzstan may not be able to offer consistent social services to its citizens. These social services may include things like public education, reliable healthcare, and law enforcement. Citizens of developing nations may have lower life expectancies than citizens of developed nations. In Kyrgyzstan, 21.72 in every 100 people use internet. Kyrgyzstan has a Human Development Index (HDI) of 0.628. Kyrgyzstan has an upper medium HDI score. This indicates that the majority of citizens will be able to attain a desirable life, though some citizens will not be able to achieve high living standards. The migration rate in Kyrgyzstan is -5.22%. In Kyrgyzstan, 25.4% of the population lives below the poverty line.

Today Canada is the seventh largest economy. Many companies are owned by private entities, but the government participates in the healthcare system and oversees some services, such as public transport and the utility industry. The Canadian economy is very diverse and quite well developed.
Most of Canada's economy is international trade and export. Currently, the US is Canada's largest trading partner. In Canada, international trade accounts for almost 45% of GDP considering that free trade agreements between Canada and the US have dramatically increased trade by eliminating tariffs. Despite its relatively small population, Canada's economy is currently one of the most prosperous in the world.
All strategic industries of the country are very well developed. Although the agricultural sector is small, it takes advantage of Canada's numerous natural resources, which are scattered across the country. In view of this, Canada is an attractive destination for global businessmen and corporations. Canada's flexible tax legislation leaves room for the use of holding structures: the country is home to several large holding companies.
ATCO Group ATCO Group is one of Canada's largest holding companies with large net sales and assets. Today this company employs almost 7 000 specialists of various professions. The holding's subsidiaries are diverse, but most of them are active in either the gas/electricity or construction sectors.
ATCO was founded in 1947 by S. Don Southern, who gave his son Ron Southern a minority interest under the name Alberta Trailer Hire and leased fifteen commercial trailers in the Calgary area. As the company's business grew, they also began selling trailers, becoming first the Alberta Trailer Company, then ATCO. By the early 1960s the company had operations throughout North America and Australia.
In 2004, with deregulation of the retail energy industry in Alberta, ATCO sold ATCO Gas and ATCO Electric retail operations to Direct Energy Marketing Ltd.; ATCO Gas and ATCO Electric continue to operate as distributors (they own and operate the infrastructure that supplies natural gas or electricity in their service areas) but are no longer active in the retail market. As part of the sale to DEML, DEML contracted call center and billing services from ATCO I-Tek.
DRI capital DRI Capital Inc. is a Toronto-based Canadian healthcare royalty fund manager, a type of private fund. The holding company's remit includes the purchase of robust and predictable royalty payments from existing pharmaceutical medicines, thereby providing investors with consistent returns.
The holding was founded in 1992. In its first year in business, it quickly went public on the Toronto Stock Exchange and acquired a licensing interest in the innovative British biotechnology development company.
Great West Lifeco Great-West Lifeco is primarily an insurance-focused Canadian holding company operating in territories of North America, Europe and Asia with 5 local subsidiaries around the world. Most of the companies that Great-West Lifeco controls indirectly are part of its largest subsidiary: The Great-West Life Assurance Company; the rest is handled by the US-based subsidiary.
Onex Corporation Onex Corporation is a privately held venture capital and holding company based near Toronto, Ontario, Canada. In 2016, the company had an estimated net worth of $22 billion under its stewardship. The company is headquartered in Brookfield Place, Toronto, with multiple offices in New York City, New Jersey and London.
The company invests in a variety of industries. Onex Corporation has previously shown a particular interest in acquiring equity stakes in high-cost manufacturing companies and then converting them into cheap, low-cost suppliers.

The limited liability company (LLC) is the most common legal form for companies in Germany. This legal form is often used by international companies that have decided to set up a subsidiary in Germany; local entrepreneurs also choose this legal form for their small and medium-sized businesses. It combines relatively few obligations with high flexibility to be set up in any economic sector. The limited liability company is subject to corporation tax, trade tax and the solidarity surcharge. The minimum share capital for LLC is EUR 25,000, with a minimum of EUR 12,500 proven in the bank account at the time of company registration. As the name of this legal form suggests, the shareholders are only liable for the capital they have contributed and do not risk their personal assets.
An LLC is usually managed and legally represented by the directors of the company. In the case of a GmbH, at least one managing director must be appointed, who does not have to be a shareholder in the company or a resident of Germany. Typically, shareholders can exert direct influence on the company by issuing binding instructions to the managing director. Before you decide whether LLC is the most suitable legal form for your company, you should keep in mind that this type of company shares cannot be publicly offered for sale. Meanwhile, the administrative and financial controls are less stringent compared to public companies.
Mini GmbH Another very similar legal form for companies is called a mini-GmbH, which is essentially the same as the regular GmbH in terms of limited liability for shareholders and no restrictions on doing business. Meanwhile, it allows entrepreneurs to contribute less capital when registering the company in Germany and therefore risk with less funds to start doing business. In fact, no minimum share capital is required at all. Instead, 25% of the company's profits must be placed in special reserves until the total amount of these reserves reaches EUR 25,000. In this case, the company is transformed into a regular LLC. The Mini-GmbH enables young entrepreneurs to start their business with less capital employed, reducing their risk and lowering the cost of capital until the business is successful and generating profits.
German GmbH taxation Typically, taxes are collected and administered by the local tax office. Local tax offices are typically responsible for administering income tax, corporate income tax (CIT), real estate transfer tax (RETT) and value-added tax (VAT). While trade tax is based on corporate taxes administered by local tax offices, enforcement of trade tax is the responsibility of municipalities. German LLCs are generally subject to the taxes explained below:
Corporate Income Tax – levied on the company's worldwide income, unless a double taxation treaty is in place. The corporate income tax rate is 15%, while corporate income tax is subject to a solidarity surcharge of 5.5%. This results in an aggregate tax rate of 15.825%; Trade tax – is levied by the municipality where the company is based. The standard tax rate is 3.5%, while the additional multiplier is added in the range from 200% to 500% and is determined individually by each municipality. This results in an aggregate tax rate of 7% to 17.5%. Both taxes are assessed annually, but companies are required to prepay corporate income tax and trade tax quarterly based on an estimated current year's tax due.
