An offshore bank account is an account at a bank located outside the United States or other country of residence of the banking client. These bank accounts are known for having low tax liabilities, thus making them also commonly known as tax havens. Offshore bank accounts also tend to provide financial and legal benefits. These benefits may include:

less controlling legal regulation

little to no taxation

greater secrecy

easy access to funds

protection against local financial or political instability

British citizens who are living permanently abroad often struggle with finding the right investment option for their retirement funds. British pension plans tend to keep the money tied up within the UK, making it difficult for the expatriate to access his or her funds. When money is made available, it is heavily taxed and is delivered in British pounds. Pounds are often not the currency of choice for those living abroad, creating a problem. The British government has recently made provisions to make it easier for expats to access and use their money while residing outside of the UK.
