Your master fund and feeder funds will benefit from the creation of a tax plan including an exempt offshore fund to protect foreign investors.
Funds typical structure is design as a master fund structure. This is the cornerstone to protect investors and create a classification for U.S., foreign and non-profit clients. The master fund will be divided into a U.S. Feeder Fund and a Foreign Feeder Fund. Within the same structure the investment manager is also a foreign entity. There are many offshore jurisdictions such as Cayman, Bermuda or Bahamas that can be used as the base for the foreign feeder fund and the investment manager. Cayman is usually the location of choice for many reasons, including its proximity to the U.S. and its legislation in addition to be a first tier offshore center.
