 Wake
Up! Free Trade Zones Are Not Just For The Big Boys - A free trade zone
(FTZ) or export processing zone (EPZ) is one or
more special areas of a country where some normal trade barriers such as
tariffs and quotas are eliminated and bureaucratic requirements are lowered.
Such zones allow tremendous labor and tax savings. They don't have to be
used strictly by large manufacturers; they can be used by individuals who
want to import / export, and by those who want to sell products from offshore
using the best possible infrastructure - good shipping, good telephone
systems, good facilities. The best of all possible places to do business.
Very Much under utilized by individuals seeking to make a living offshore.
Look into starting a business in a Free Trade Zone. It's not just for the
big boys. |

Relocation - Honduras: More Than Another Pretty Face
- None of what is happening in Honduras is a matter of chance. Since 1980
successive democratic governments have made it official policy to seek
foreign investment and use it as the engine to drive and develop the nation's
economy. And, Honduras, with its political and social stability, could
offer a lot in return. It has always provided a wealth of affordable natural
resources, plenty of land for agriculture, forestry, mining and tourism
- and an inexpensive, trainable labor force with an extraordinary work
ethic. Now there are additional incentives. And, there are none more important
than the package of fiscal and legal incentives designed to facilitate,
protect and promote foreign investment.

Relocation - Trinidad: Beyond the Carnival
- Although a Caribbean nation, Trinidad is a true melting pot of people,
cultures, and industries from throughout The Caribbean Basin, as well as
Central and South America, and so it seems appropriate to end our Special
Edition series focusing on what this unique nation has to offer! One thing
it has to offer is an aggressive attitude toward developing the nation,
its people and economy through welcoming outside investment and development.
Trinidad has boldly positioned itself through long range strategic mechanisms
as a nation at the forefront of its region. Five years ago TIDCO, Trinidad
& Tobago's former internal development agency (now reformed as TDC)
announced that the twin island nation offered a strategic location for
investment and that much of its future plans would be developed within
Vision 2020, its strategic plan of action for the future.

CoReLo:
Assembly, a Thriving Caribbean Industry -
The authors of "Do Taxes Influence Where U.S. Corporations Invest", used
data aggregated from more than 500 corporation's tax returns to test a
firms' sensitivity to tax rates. They found that "rates do have a significant
effect on the choice of locations and the amount of capital invested there.
A lower rate that increases the after tax return to capital by one percent
is associated with about 3 % more real capital invested if the country
has an open trade regime." Based on these results, the report concludes
that were taxes not a motivating factor, approximately one fifth of U.S
capital abroad would be in a different location.

“The United 'Bankrupt' States of America” By Harry S. Dent, Jr. -
Niall Ferguson, author of The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the
World, has been commenting lately that the U.S. government should be hearing
alarm bells, given the rising debt and stimulus programs. In contrast,
mainstream economists like Paul Krugman have been saying that if the U.S.
doesn’t stimulate more quickly and aggressively, it will fall into another
depression or deeper downturn. - From

A Restaurant in Paradise - Atlanta
restaurant brokers Eric and Robin Gagnon recently traveled to St. Maarten
to relax on the white sandy beaches and enjoy the ocean breezes. Ever watchful
of the restaurant industry, they were surprised at the number of U.S.,
Canadian, French and English natives they observed who had relocated to
this tropical island to serve up their own version of cheeseburgers in
paradise. |
