Executive summary
Governments globally have been taking initiatives to curb offshore tax evasion for many years. However, this
phenomenon has assumed increased urgency since 2008–2009 when economies across the world,
developed nations in particular, were severely impacted financially. Their prime targets have been offshore tax
havens such as Switzerland and Singapore. Coordinated and individual actions taken by different jurisdictions
have significant ramifications for offshore wealth management companies and other institutions whose
business is significantly driven by offshore deposits.
The economy at the forefront of fighting offshore tax evasion is the US. It has entered into agreements with
several nations to ensure that their financial institutions implement the provisions of the Foreign Account Tax
Compliance Act (FATCA), passed by US Congress. Under FATCA, the financial institutions of partner
nations are required to give details of accounts held by US taxpayers with them, or be subject to a withholding
tax of 30%.
Jurisdictions such as the UK have been signing bilateral agreements with other economies, under which
limited timeframe disclosure facilities are being offered to offshore account holders to come clean on their
wealth or face penalties. Wealth management companies in tax havens entering into these agreements are
expected to handle significant funds through tax payments by offshore account holders. This comes under the
category of tax information exchange agreements, whereby financial institutions in treaty countries are
required to submit client data.

2. citizens to come clean on their offshore wealth upon which they would be subjected to lower penalties. Some
countries such as Germany are not hesitating from buying out stolen offshore bank data and based upon it are
taking punitive measures both against those who have evaded their taxes and also the banks abetting them.
Wealth management companies in offshore tax havens have to increasingly highlight the wealth management
proficiencies that they have built over a period of time rather than highlighting confidentiality of tax
information. Due to the reduced returns on wealth deposited offshore due to penalties, individuals will
increasingly keep their money onshore. In the long run, it would be in the interest of the offshore wealth
management companies to obtain full-fledged licenses to operate onshore in the countries that they have
previously been dependent on business for.
