Corporate
Online Account 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.
Basic corporate brokerage accounts are set up through our recommended brokerage firm in Panama City, Republic of Panama. 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. Clients securities are insured through the SIPC (Securities Investor Protection Corporation) up to US$500,000 and carries additional insurance up to US$99.5 million through a major international insurance carrier. The brokers/financial advisors are all English/Spanish speaking, National Securities Commission registered, licensed brokers who can provide you with complete investment advice for investing in mutual funds, stocks, bonds, options, money markets, etc. They mainly trade on the US and Canadian stock exchanges (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, Toronto, etc.), however they can buy or sell securities on most major exchanges around the globe.
Trade fees vary depending on the trade amount, type of security traded, 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. Each account includes an optional Corporate Cirrus Debit Card, and Internet access. The Corporate Cirrus Debit Card is offered as an optional service for those clients who need access to funds via ATM´s globally. The recommended brokerage firms annual fee for the Corporate Cirrus Debit Card is US$250. The cost to send you the card via courier is US$50. The cost to fund the debit card account from the brokerage account is approximately US$50, depending on the amount transferred to the debit card account. Once the debit card account is funded, you may withdraw funds from ATM´s around the world, up to US$10,000 per day.
The corporate USD checkbook is used to make payments
by check to anyone around the globe. The checks are internationally
accepted by most banks around the globe. The checkbook will be
provided once the initial minimum deposit of US$1000 is made.
Internet access is provided so you can access
your corporate account information online using a secured password
and userID. You may deposit either USD or Euro´s to the brokerage account. Any transfers received in other currencies will be immediately converted to USD prior to entering the 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.
