Panama Corporate Bank Account

* Documentation requirements are subject to change without notice.
* Brokerage firms may require other documentation.

Set Up Fees: A Basic Corporate Brokerage Account introduction to a recommended brokerage firm is included at no additional cost with the purchase of a corporation (or foundation) package. Otherwise, if purchasing the account by itself, the introduction and processing account set up fee is US$500.

Brokerage Firm: The brokerage firm is located in Panama and is a National Securities Commission registered, licensed and insured international firm. All securities and cash deposits are held in custody by one of the largest international securities clearing firms in the world. The financial advisors are all English/Spanish speaking. They are licensed brokers who can provide you with complete assistance for investing in mutual funds, stocks, bonds, money markets, etc.

Currency: Any transfers received in other currencies will be immediately converted to USD prior to entering the account. You may deposit either USD or Euro´s to the brokerage account. Once the account is funded, you may convert your USD or Euro´s to any other major currency, so in effect, the brokerage account is a multi-currency account.

Trade Fees: Vary depending on the type of security traded, trade amount, and the stock exchange traded on. We cannot provide a fees list for trade fees since it varies so much from one market to another, however, we can say that trade fees are about the same as any full service broker. Full service brokers normally charge a small percentage (about 0.5%) of the trade instead of a standard fee. However, when purchasing no-load mutual funds, the fund company will generally cover the trade fee.

Internet Access: Internet access is provided so you can access your corporate account information online using a secured password and user ID.
