Offshore Investment Accounts: Seychelles, Belize, or Cyprus?

Belize: Noted American writer Bruce Barcott describes Belize thus: “Belize is a tiny nation tucked between Guatemala, Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea. It is firmly attached to Central America but considers itself a Caribbean island. For more than a hundred years Belize was known as British Honduras, one of the most remote outposts of the British Empire, which explains why it is the only Latin American nation to embrace English as its official language. Belize goes unnoticed by the rest of the world, and over the years the country has parlayed its obscurity into an attractive asset. For those shipwrecked on the shoals of life, Belize offers a new beginning.” – from Belize.com….

Belize (formerly British Honduras) located in the northernmost Central America is bordered to the north by Mexico, south and wet by Guatemala, and is on the Caribbean Sea.   English is the official language and has the lowest population density in Central America but is growing very quickly.   Also is known for its Diving and Fishing, plus the 1,000 foot falls (image here).
