Should I Hire an Internationally Versed CPA to Protect My Assets?

There are some basic issues that you can probably handle without an attorney or a CPA, such as establishing foreign bank accounts, buying precious metals and buying and owning foreign real estate. However, as your asset portfolio grows beyond the $250,000 threshold, you may find yourself facing complex global matters that must be addressed in order to grow and protect your wealth.

These matters can include:

• International relations
• Export and import laws
• Foreign investments
• International business transactions and contracts
• Formation and development of business structures
• Obtaining proper licenses and permits
• Finance and bank laws
• Intellectual property
• Insurance and liability
• Foreign litigation
• International arbitration
• Formation of international asset-protection trusts
• Foreign “retiree” laws

Accordingly, you should retain professionals who know the best practices relating to foreign taxation, investments and business laws and regulations that you may have to abide by as a U.S. citizen. There are not many domestic business attorneys and CPAs who are intimately familiar with international business laws and regulations.
