Offshore investment is the keeping of money in a jurisdiction other than one's country of residence. Offshore jurisdictions are used to pay less tax in many countries by large and small-scale investors. Poorly regulated offshore domiciles have served historically as havens for tax evasion, money laundering, or to conceal or protect illegally acquired money from law enforcement in the investor's country. However, the modern, well-regulated offshore centres allow legitimate investors to take advantage of higher rates of return or lower rates of tax on that return offered by operating via such domiciles. The advantage to offshore investment is that such operations are both legal and less costly than those offered in the investor's country—or "onshore".

| - Offshore investment is the keeping of money in a jurisdiction other than one's country of residence. Offshore jurisdictions are used to pay less tax in many countries by large and small-scale investors. Poorly regulated offshore domiciles have served historically as havens for tax evasion, money laundering, or to conceal or protect illegally acquired money from law enforcement in the investor's country. However, the modern, well-regulated offshore centres allow legitimate investors to take advantage of higher rates of return or lower rates of tax on that return offered by operating via such domiciles. The advantage to offshore investment is that such operations are both legal and less costly than those offered in the investor's country—or "onshore". Locations favored by investors for low rates of tax are known as offshore financial centers or (sometimes) tax havens. Payment of less tax is the driving force behind most 'offshore' activity. Due to the use of offshore centers, investors are able to conduct investment activities in a more profitable fashion. Often, taxes levied by an investor's home country are critical to the profitability of any given investment. Using offshore-domiciled special purpose mechanisms (or vehicles) an investor may reduce the amount of tax payable, allowing the investor to achieve greater profitability overall. Another reason why 'offshore' investment is considered superior to 'onshore' investment is because it is less regulated, and the behavior of the offshore investment provider, whether he be a banker, fund manager, trustee or stock-broker, is freer than it could be in a more regulated environment.

- Investimento offshore é a manutenção de dinheiro em jurisdição diferente do país de residência. As jurisdições offshore são usadas para pagar menos impostos em muitos países por grandes e pequenos investidores. Domicílios offshore mal regulamentados têm servido historicamente como paraísos para evasão fiscal, lavagem de dinheiro ou para ocultar ou proteger dinheiro adquirido ilegalmente na aplicação da lei no país do investidor. No entanto, os centros offshore modernos e bem regulamentados permitem que investidores legítimos tirem proveito de taxas de retorno mais altas ou taxas de imposto mais baixas sobre esse retorno oferecidas pela operação através de tais domicílios. A vantagem do investimento offshore é que essas operações são legais e menos onerosas do que as oferecidas no país do investidor — ou "onshore". Os locais preferidos pelos investidores para taxas baixas de impostos são conhecidos como ou (às vezes) paraísos fiscais. O pagamento de menos impostos é a força motriz por trás da maioria das atividades "offshore". Devido ao uso de centros offshore, os investidores podem realizar atividades de investimento de uma forma mais lucrativa. Freqüentemente, os impostos cobrados pelo país de origem do investidor são essenciais para a lucratividade de qualquer investimento. Usando mecanismos (ou veículos) para fins especiais domiciliados no exterior, um investidor pode reduzir o valor do imposto a pagar, permitindo que o investidor obtenha uma maior lucratividade geral. Outra razão pela qual o investimento "offshore" é considerado superior ao investimento "onshore" é porque é menos regulamentado e o comportamento do provedor de investimento offshore, seja ele um banqueiro, gestor de fundos, administrador ou corretor de ações, é mais livre do que ele poderia estar em um ambiente mais regulamentado.
