Offshore Financial Services

Vanuatu is a long-established offshore banking centre, with over 60 banks either incorporated or registered here.

Vanuatu is a founding member of the Offshore Banking Supervisors, a group of 17 jurisdictions which includes the leading offshore jurisdictions in the world.

While offshore banks with private owners can still be incorporated in Vanuatu, as distinct from offshoots of overseas licensed financial institutions, it is not easy as the ongoing reporting and compliance requirements are of international standards.

Vanuatu also offers private banking and offshore deposit acceptance. Vanuatu's extensive confidentiality laws are designed so your private transactions do not become public, but the bank handling your affairs will need full disclosure about yourself if they are going to act for you.

European Bank Limited can provide deposit and private banking services, and has profitably been serving Vanuatu for over a quarter of a century. It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of European Capital Holdings Corp LLC of Delaware USA.
