Tax Savings & Capital Preservation

Tax Savings & Capital Preservation

Taxes are rising, whether corporate, Sub-chapter S or personal and both Federal or state.  Sources of working capital have become scarce, whether through equity placements or bank or non-bank debt.  How do you protect net margins and permit funds generated internally to grow?  Thanks to a little known ruling issued by the Treasury in April 2008, it is now possible to operate under US law, improve the quality of eCommerce infrastructure through the superior bandwidth infrastructure in the USVI and save up to 90% off of customary Federal rates.

The Treasury’s permanent regulations clarify source income treatment for certain knowledge-based businesses, facilitating ecommerce and software intellectual property models in the US Virgin Islands.  VI residents are exempt from US taxes and, to spur economic development, the VI Bureau of Revenue offers up to 90% off of mirrored US rates and a low 4% rate on dividends and royalties generated in the USVI.
