What you say is this still a viable way to accomplish financial service business? I mean I don't want to get cough after investing aprox 20k into the setup!

It is still something you want to do also if you just need it for an high level of asset protection.

You need to make sure that you have all KYC documents available in order to start the stablishing of an PIF
- copy of passport
- utility bill not older than 3 months and notarized
- CV
- description for the use of the PIF
- The questionair completed returned to us (we will provide)
- Councillort KYC documents & Declaration form completed (we will provide)

The below point is important to note and to ensure that you are able to comply to:

warrant and confirm that I haven't been convicted of any criminal offence, been declared bankrupt (or the equivalent in any relevant jurisdiction), been disqualified from acting as a director of any corporate body or any similar position and nor do such persons hold or have held any material political appointment and are not related to a person who holds or has held a material political appointment.

Iam solvent and has never been declared bankrupt or en désastre (or the equivalent in any relevant jurisdiction);
am not under investigation or involved in any legal or other proceedings;

Any question just post here. I have helped a few people during the years to establish a PIF. The first post is from the former owners and not something I have posted!

Hi,

Is the above PDF still valid? I got some questions I would like to ask about a very similar structure, and whether or not it is a valid way to structure an IV for US Public Markets

No - it is 9 years since this was posted... lot's have changed, lot's have to be done different.

I assume @Martin Everson @Sols @CaptK and a few more can come up with something that may work better.

I've taken the liberty of updating the original 2011 post to reflect the current landscape as of 2025. While the core logic of layered offshore structures and nominee based anonymity remains intact, significant changes in global compliance, banking scrutiny, and CRS enforcement have reshaped what works and what doesn’t.

The updated version focuses on more realistic jurisdictions, reflects the tightening around nominee misuse, and places greater emphasis on practical compliance strategies. It’s no longer just about hiding ownership; it's about structuring things intelligently to remain both private and defensible. What used to be "plug and play" in 2011 now requires more due diligence, better documentation, and more resilient banking and fund flows.

This revised guide is intended to serve as a solid framework for those still seeking financial sovereignty without falling into obvious traps.

Wow, thank you very much.

For the table, you can actually write it like this:

[table]

[tr][td][b]Component[/b][/td][td][b]Estimated Cost (EUR)[/b][/td][/tr]

[tr][td]Investor IBC setup[/td][td]1,500 – 2,000[/td][/tr]

[tr][td]Fund SPV setup[/td][td]2,500 – 4,000[/td][/tr]

[tr][td]Trading Co setup[/td][td]2,000 – 3,500[/td][/tr]

[tr][td]Trusts (2x)[/td][td]5,000 – 10,000[/td][/tr]

[tr][td]Bank onboarding[/td][td]1,000 – 3,000[/td][/tr]

[tr][td]Legal documentation[/td][td]3,000 – 5,000[/td][/tr]

[/table]

And it will then show up very nicely:

Component	Estimated Cost (EUR)
Investor IBC setup	1,500 – 2,000
Fund SPV setup	2,500 – 4,000
Trading Co setup	2,000 – 3,500
Trusts (2x)	5,000 – 10,000
Bank onboarding	1,000 – 3,000
Legal documentation	3,000 – 5,000

Do you want to do this for free ? do you have company service providers that are able to help with structuring such Group investment plan?

Wondering if @James Turner @CyprusLawyer101 @CyprusBusiness @CyprusLaw or some of the many others around can input or help with setting up such thing?
