The Basics of Panama Corporation

Definition and Purpose

A Panama Corporation, also known as a Sociedad Anónima (S.A.), is a legal entity established to conduct business activities, including real estate investment. It offers investors a flexible and secure way to manage their investments.

Key Advantages

  • Asset Protection: Corporations in Panama provide a layer of anonymity and protection against personal liabilities.
  • Tax Efficiency: Panama’s territorial tax system means income generated outside of Panama may not be subject to local taxes.

Understanding Panama Private Foundation

Definition and Core Objectives

The Panama Private Foundation acts as a hybrid between a trust and a corporation, primarily used for asset protection and estate planning rather than business operations.

Main Benefits

  • Enhanced Privacy: Foundations offer greater confidentiality since the names of beneficiaries need not be publicly disclosed.
  • Estate Planning: Ideal for managing and distributing assets to beneficiaries without the complexities of a will.Read More
