Can we buy a middle man to open a bank account in Guatemala? So I don't will need to provide any ID?

The Guatemala banks will not want a belize person opening a bank account. It is silly to flock to the typical tax havens. It is very astute of you to pick Guatemala as it is not a 'tax haven' but provides all the same freedom from taxation as long as the income is foreign to Guatemala. This is very good. An anonymous Guatemala corporation would provide an sufficient vehicle to free revenue from taxation to persons from the US and EU. Then with that corporation being the dividend receiver, and coupled with proper and sufficient accounting records, several different vehicles could be used as a spearhead for any jurisdiction. Remember to always separate assets from monies from revenue vehicles in your journey to corporate structuring. Have fun, be safe!

Yes you can do it in Guatemala.

Why would you want to put a middle man who you had to buy as signatory over the whole account??? You would not want to do this even if you had a 10k page contract with the nominee. He could still empty the entire account and the corporation would be in civil proceedings for much time attempting to get the monies back.

That is true. It would take your whole life and still there is not a real chance to get your money back!!!

But isn't it possible to protect you from this to happen?

 

[TVentures]

No. Never ever ever ever use a nominee for signatory unless you trust that nominee with your mothers life. Even then, greed is a powerful thing.

Exactly, you should never use one. The signatory can use your bank account and let you full of air...but not money!!!

LoL anyone ever thought about that he won't have the banking codes, token device etc. and that you can make a written agreement with the bank that you are the only one who can control the bank account? That's actually possible.


Alos I got informed that I can get a Declaration of Professional Intermediary which will protect me additional from the above scenario to happen. This is for Cyprus bank's only I got informed.

Fantastic thread... have been following it for a while..thanks.

You may simply ask the bank to disallow anyone else than yourself to sign for the account and to withdraw any money, that simple it's actually is.

.

Only one big problem with that scenario.... The Nominee is the sole signatory to the account. Therefore he can cancel all your banking codes, and token devices.


Also, any written agreement between you and the bank will be secondary to the power of the Signatory to the account (the Nominee).

You may simply ask the bank to disallow anyone else than yourself to sign for the account and to withdraw any money, that simple it's actually is.

Again, the Signatory to the account (the Nominee) is legally in a far superior position to you. The bank will act on the instructions of the Nominee.

Agree with you..but think about it, what do you think that would happen to a company tha may be 10, 20 or even 100 Y.O and they started to take peoples money, how long do you believe they are in business just after doing this by just one client?


If we speak Fly by Night companies, companies just started or who are no regulated forget about it OR simply only leave a little sum each time in the company. Another scenario would be to only use the bank account to which the nominee "may have" access to as an kind of intermediate account.
