South Africa’s GDP is less than half a percent of global GDP. What’s more, because we live, work and earn in South Africa, our investments are overly concentrated in the local market.
In this Standard Bank Power Hour Simon Brown discusses effective offshore investing. He will also cover the complicated US Situs tax and practical ways to reduce your exposure.
Simon covers:
- Getting money offshore
- How much to have offshore vs. local
- Offshore platforms
- Local but offshore ETFs
- The global ETF market
- Which offshore markets are best
- Tax on offshore investments
- Getting your money back into South Africa
Power Hour
How do you make sense of the financial markets? How do you interpret the latest financial news? Where do you learn how financial instruments work? How can you learn to invest?
The Power Hour started in 2011 with top industry experts presenting to private investors on financial issues closest to their heart. Power Hours are now both live in-person presentations in Johannesburg, and broadcast live online.
