An offshore foundation is simply a conventional foundation that is formed under the laws of an offshore jurisdiction. Like conventional foundations they are generally a low tax entity, but with less "red tape" and reporting requirements. Foundations are mainly used for altruistic or estate planning purposes. In terms of the legal structure, an offshore foundation lies somewhere between an offshore company and an offshore trust.
The types of offshore foundation are:
- Austrian Foundation
- Bahamas Foundation
- Liechtenstein Foundation ("Stiftung")
- Luxembourg Foundation
- Netherlands Antilles Private Foundation ("Stichting Particulier Fonds")
- Nevis Multiform Foundation
- Panama Charitable Foundation
- Panama Private Interest Foundation
- Saint Kitts Foundation
