Cyprus Financial Services, Taxation and Trusts

Tax aspects
Cypriot international trusts enjoy important tax advantages, providing significant tax planning opportunities to interested parties. The following advantages are indicative of the possible options for tax minimization: All income, whether trading or otherwise, of an international trust (ie a trust whose property is located and income is derived from outside Cyprus) is not taxable in Cyprus Dividends, interest or other income received by a trust from a Cyprus international business company are also neither taxable nor subject to withholding tax provided that the beneficiaries are not tax resident in Cyprus.

Stay Away From These Financial Services

Now that the recession is in full force, there’s no denying that thousands of jobs are lost, hiring of new employees as well as salaries of old ones are frozen, and stock and housing markets are running significantly lower than they have in decades. Given this array of depressing news, it can be terribly tempting to look for quick cash to address your immediate financial needs. If you’ve been tempted lately, it’s okay; you’re not alone. However, don’t just call the next advertisement you see in the paper because a lot of these so-called financiers can really drain your pockets with their unreasonable timeframes and interest rates. Below is a rundown on the financial services you must avoid at all times.

Credit card cash advances

These work much like a debit card, wherein you swipe your card at an ATM, type in your PIN and you can withdraw cash subject to the limits established by your credit card issuer. It sounds really easy and convenient, but it’s one of the worst ways to get quick cash for many reasons. First, the ATM will charge a fee immediately upon withdrawing the money. Second, the interest stars accruing at once. Unlike most loans, credit card cash advances do not have a grace period. Third, not only do they charge you aggressively, they also put extremely high interest rates, sometimes reaching up to 36% APR. Whether you pay on time or not, this type of loan will charge you with unreasonable fees and interest rates and you’ll find yourself having less money than before.  Read more...

Why Has the Financial Services Authority (FSA) Regulated the Sale and Rent Back Sector?

Sell and rent back has been in existence for many years. In the past, there have been a number of cases where companies or individuals have entered into a sale and rent back agreements, promising the owner the opportunity to remain in their property for as long as they wish.

However, the reality in a number of cases is that after a period of six months, the owners have been served notice, evicted from the property, and left homeless by unscrupulous landlords and the property sold at a large profit. In addition to this, there have also been cases where mortgage companies have repossessed the homes of these individuals as the landlords have been unable or unwilling to make mortgage payments on the homes in question.

In response to this, the FSA has taken the step to provide security to those wishing to sell their home whilst remaining in the property for the long term. The FSA have asked all companies and individuals that operate in the sector to apply for ‘interim authorisation.’ From the 1st of July 2009, all companies wishing to continue working in the sale and rent back sector had to apply for this authorisation by the 31st July 2009. Any company not submitting an application by this date is NOT permitted to conduct business in this sector from 1st August 2009.  Read more...
