Thanks again for all this fantastic information. I have really learnt heaps from everyone who has responded.
It looks like an offshore company will be a waste of time and I will need to look at structuring a normal company with perhaps a trust structure for tax minimisation (not avoidance!) I did hope I could get away with not paying any tax on my anticipated future forex trading income, but if its not to be its not to be .
That leaves me with the question of what sort of tax rate am I likely to expect through a company. I have heard that if the majority of my income from a company is from one area, it is still taxed at the individual rate. Is this true? Looks like a trip to the bookstore is in order!
Cheers
Nat
