Investing offshore can be a great strategy for individuals and businesses looking to diversify and protect their wealth.
There’s no universally applicable rule regarding the proportion of your portfolio that should be invested overseas. Making the most of your target requires that you account for your objectives, the state of the market, and legal requirements.
There are many options for offshore investments, albeit there are risks and complications associated with this approach as well.
