Please explain the Holding vs Trust structure of an offshore company setup?

[offshoreoffice]

I have really been learning a lot from this forum and still do.


My questions is what may be better when it comes to structure your offshore company to provide the maximume of privacy and anonymity and security when it comes to asset protection.


Some threads seems to show how you simply need a Holding Paramaount company, best to be offshore and a onshore (for instant UK company) for trading purpose.


Other threads show that you will need a Foundation + Trust + Holding + Trading company all offshore, what is better and why would one need that many entities?

Some general information about what Holding Company is, Holding company - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia apply also to Offshore holding companies.

For small offshore setups a Holding ~ Trading construction will be sufficient.
