Offshore banking

Offshore banking (offshore private banking or offshore wealth management) refers to the practice of managing a person’s wealth outside of their country of residence. It is the opposite of onshore banking.

If, for example, a person or entity residing in Germany has their wealth managed in Switzerland, Singapore, or anywhere other than Germany, they are using offshore services.
