One of the most sought after offshore tools are offshore debit cards.  These cards allow the account holder of beneficiary to obtain a higher level of financial freedom by offering access to cash being held in an off shore bank account.  By allowing such access as well as creating specialized cards which do not contain personal information about the end user, offshore banks allow clients the option to gain easy access to their money.  Another very interesting and little explored method of adding a higher level of financial freedom for those who conduct business offshore or via an offshore company is offshore payroll as well as personal asset protection.  By loading funds on the card you can avoid leaving the normal paper trail that onshore cards tend to emit.  Protecting one’s assets is probably one of the most important reasons for going offshore today.  Time and time again we hear the horror stories of people who loose their life’s savings and then are bound by courts and juries to pay large sums of money to an alleged victim.  In the end, if those who have suffered such terrible financial fates would have heeded the warning and employed an asset protection strategy as well as requested an offshore card from their bank, they would have spared themselves as well as their family great suffering and financial loss while conserving what is rightfully theirs.
