Why Republic of Montenegro?

The Republic of Montenegro forms part of The Yugoslav Federation FRY and is situated on Balkans, having the seashore on Adriatic right in the hart of Europe and Mediterranean. The capital of the Republic of Montenegro is Podgorica. The country has its own Constitution and President, as well as Government and Parliament structures. After several years of economic sanctions imposed by UN that were lifted recently, the economy needs foreign investment which was the reason of adopting special laws.

If you wish to open a fully licensed bank which is authorized to carry on banking business world-wide, the most competitive and attractive jurisdiction today is the REPUBLIC OF MONTENEGRO.

Offshore banks established in Montenegro can carry out international trade, provide management services, consulting services, ships and yachts administration, investment-banking and insurance services...

Why Republic of Montenegro?

The "Act on companies which are established and which conduct business activity on special terms" was adopted by the Assembly of the Republic of Montenegro July 26 1996 in conformity with the Article 88, point 2 of the Constitution of Montenegro. Under this Act a territory of the Republic of Montenegro is declared as a free economic and developing area is guaranteed to foreign legal and natural persons the freedom of establishing companies, the freedom of enterprise and freedom of contracting international business transactions subject to terms and methods prescribed by the Act.

The Republic of Montenegro, by the Act, ensures tax exemptions and relieves and other privileges for establishing and conducting business activity of companies or branches of foreign and domiciling, sojourning and working of foreign citizens.

To obtain a banking license a company must be established as Joint Stock Company ("JSC") formed by at least two subscribers (as subscriber may participate physical or juridical person) and have it paid capital of US$ 10,000. All the information is kept in the Register of the Ministry of Finance of Montenegro which generally is the following for "JSC":

SUCH BANKING LICENSES ARE NOT LIMITED BY TIME.

Tax Regime: The bank is obliged to file a tax declaration in due time at the end of each calendar year or to hand over to the competent tax authority other data necessary for calculating taxable profit. The bank pays the tax at the rate 2.5% on its declared profit. The tax base is further reduced with the amount of financial resources from income which is directed into investments within the territory of the Republic.

Annual Payments: An amount of US$100 is payable to the Registry for the joint stock companies on an annual basis. An annual fee of US$4,500 is payable for the Registered Agent and Registered Office in the Republic of Montenegro (payable on incorporation, then annually on the anniversary thereafter). Book-keeping and accountancy costs are not included. These extra services can be provided if required.

Correspondent Accounts: The basic package includes opening a correspondent bank account at the Bank of Montenegro. This allows the new bank to use their existing correspondent network which includes Citibank, Commerzbank, Union Bank of Switzerland, etc. for sending and receiving payments.

Formation Time: Usually to form a new bank with the client's directors and name proposed by the client takes on average 4 weeks.

Requirements to Begin Formation:

  1. At least three (3) proposed names of the bank to make sure that at least one name is available and approved by the Ministry of Finance.
  2. At least two (2) founders - they can be natural persons, in which case we will require certified photocopies of their passports. If the founders are legal entities, then copies of the registration documents will be required, which must be legalized with an Apostille. If you require nominee service, we recommend you to obtain two companies from us.

Documents you will receive on completion:

  • Certificate of the opened foreign currency Correspondent A/C as well as a receipt for the foreign currency account issued by the Montenegro Bank.
  • Certificate of inscription (registration) in the Companies Register.
  • Memorandum of Association of the bank.
  • Articles of Association.
  • License as proof for conducting banking and other financial activities.
  • Certified English translations of the above legalized with Apostilles.
Mailing, Fax, Telephone And Office Facilities: As part of the domiciliary service fee we provide clients with a registered office address in the country of incorporation but clients may find it convenient to arrange for mail forwarding, fax and telephone facilities through our Switzerland, The Bahamas Islands, London or other Petro Funds world-wide offices. This service may be especially useful where, for example, the company is opening bank accounts. Normally the bank would address statements and other correspondence to the company at the address of the client but this results in a loss of confidentiality in that the connection between the company name and the client will be automatically made.

To safeguard against this mail can be directed to our offices and we can re-mail those letters in a plain envelope addressed to the client or otherwise as the client directs. An additional advantage of using our re-mailing services is that the provision of a re-mailing address through one of our prestigiously located offices in the onshore jurisdictions may allow the offshore company to appear to be domiciled on-shore and thereby give that company an added degree if respectability.

For example, your offshore company could quote Petro Funds London office address on its letterhead and thereby appear to be domiciled in the UK. This procedure is particularly attractive if the Hong Kong address is used as a Hong Kong company is not required to quote its registered office address on its letterhead. Thus if an offshore company were to quote a Hong Kong address it would be indistinguishable from the letterhead, from a normal Hong Kong trading company.The charge for this service is only $275 per annum.

Trust Services: Using a trust to own the shares of an offshore company can result in very substantial tax and non-tax related advantages which will accrue both on death and during the lifetime of the trust settler. These advantages may include:

Saving Of Inheritance Tax: On death, the Inheritance tax which would normally be assessed on the value of shares would generally be eradicated.

Asset Protection: Assets placed into trust are generally beyond the reach of creditors who might arise as a result of financial difficulties, divorce proceedings, litigation, etc.

Avoidance Of Probate: A trust provides a means whereby assets can be smoothly passed on to the next generation without the disruption, delays substantial costs, loss of confidentiality associated with the probate procedure which necessarily follows when assets are bequeathed by will.

Continuity: Trusts provide a means whereby assets can continue to be administered in accordance with the wishes of the settlor after his death so the weak can be protected from others and the spend-thrift can be protected from himself.

Lifetime Tax Savings: During lifetime, substantial income and capital gains tax advantages may result from setting up the trust. Using the service of one of our licensed trust companies, we are pleased to act as trustee for a suitably drafted discretionary trust and the cost of this service would be from US$500 for setting up the trust deed and from US$500 per annum for the provision of trustee services.
