what to do with jersey savings

Hello

I have some savings in Jersey .. I plan to withdraw before the retention tax feature ends in 2015

Can anyone advise where else in the world is safe for offshore accounts or suitable products

Obviously Jersey, Isle of Man etc are out ...


Thanks so much :j

    unless you are not declaring your interest income, why are you concerned with the withdrawal of the retention tax ?

    I agree. Places that aren't reporting, may well not be safe. And it is probably best to be above board and legal.

    So report the money, pay your back income tax owed. If you have been reporting your income, keep it there.
