Offshore Banking in Hong Kong

International entrepreneurs choose offshore banking in Hong Kong due to Hong Kong’s excellent reputation as a financial and banking centre. Furthermore, thanks to Healy Consultants’ professional approach, we assist clients to open a Hong Kong corporate bank account quickly and easily. The following is an overview of the main features of offshore banking in Hong Kong.
1.	The Hong Kong government requests local banks to implement strict 'know your client' procedures at the time of Hong Kong corporate bank account opening to ensure the capital inflows are legitimate and clean.
2.	Because of the above, it is difficult for international companies to open a Hong Kong corporate bank account. However, Healy Consultants has a 100% approval record for obtaining Hong Kong corporate bank account approvals.
3.	Client information typically requested to open a Hong Kong corporate bank account includes:
	i)	A detailed business plan with information on and evidence of products and services which forms part of the Hong Kong corporate bank account application;
	ii)	Examples of contracts and invoices generated by and for the newly-incorporated company to support the Hong Kong corporate bank account application;
	iii)	Recent proof of address of the bank signatories (in English) to accompany the Hong Kong corporate bank account application;
	iv)	Passport copies of bank signatories to accompany the Hong Kong corporate bank account application;
	v)	A bank reference letter for the bank signatories to accompany the Hong Kong corporate bank account application.
4.	Offshore banking in Hong Kong takes approximately four to six weeks to fully complete. It takes two weeks for Healy Consultants to prepare a complete Hong Kong corporate bank account application. In a further two weeks, the bank reviews and approves the application and provides Hong Kong corporate bank account numbers. The bank issues Internet passwords and an ATM card two weeks later.
5.	Healy Consultants is one of the few global professional firms that can assist in opening a Hong Kong corporate bank account without our client needing to visit Hong Kong. We prepare all Hong Kong corporate bank account opening documents and attend a bank interview on your behalf.
6.	Offshore banking in Hong Kong is secure. Hong Kong has strong client confidentiality laws and refuses to exchange customer information with Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) member countries.
7.	Offshore banking in Hong Kong portrays an excellent image to customers, suppliers and even investors.
8.	Features of offshore banking in Hong Kong include multi currency accounts and exceptional Internet banking facilities.
9.	The initial deposit for a Hong Kong corporate bank account is US$2,300. This is a bank requirement.
10.	Demand for offshore banking in Hong Kong is soaring thanks to increased capital flows from West to East (see a related article here).
