 International Currency It is estimated that more than 250,000 Britons move abroad each year, yet a staggering 81 per cent don’t give their Banking needs a second thought before they leave the country, and as many as 60 per cent of people admit that this is largely because they don’t understand how offshore accounts work.
It is important to set your finances in order before you move, and there are a number of good reasons why a UK national living overseas should hold an offshore account as their primary way of accessing finances. Offshore current accounts, not to be confused with offshore savings accounts which usually require notice to withdraw money, are designed to allow participates to pay their monthly salaries and/or pensions in, facilitating the transfer of funds to a recommended second account in their country of residence to cover day-to-day living and pay utility bills.
