Dear Fellows
I am planning to set up an offshore structure to trade commodities. According to the customers I deal with, I need to have a company in a jurisdiction with good reputation.
- Could you recommend me who could be a good company to use for offshore company formation.
- Which jurisdiction is the most attractive for this type of business regarding taxes?
- I need to have the maximum possible privacy.
Your advice would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance

I'm not sure but for what you are looking for it seems to me a Cyprus company will be the best option if privacy is of high priority as well as reputation of the country.

If privacy wasn't a requirement in your above list I would have recommend to look into something like Ireland or Malta or even Liechtenstein but all these jurisdictions provide almost no privacy at all.

Go with Cyprus to make a long story short!

- I need to have the maximum possible privacy.

Why is privacy so important for you compared to the trust there is in some offshore jurisdictions compared to others more shady?

You may elaborate a little OP!

You want t look for a UK company for best reputation. For best privacy you want to look for a Seychelles company as I know.

UK is not bad for reputation similar to Ireland! You just don't have any provacy any longer there!

I wonder if anyone can elaborate in how Cyprus promotes privacy???

I would say that a Cyprus Company is the only right choice in your situation. Not because every thread is almost about the same jurisdiction here but more because it is a flexible entity to work with. If you need privacy you can do that with a CYP Company, if you want to do legal tax planning you can do that, if you want to operate Worldwide you can do that and not banks or payment processors will limit your options to navigate your business.
