The legal regimes of offshore jurisdictions have historically differed in significant ways from those applicable in onshore jurisdictions. Inevitably, legal and financial professionals have seized upon these differences to develop strategies for reducing transactions costs. A prominent example of such cross-border arbitrage was the routing of Eurodollar loans through a small group of former Dutch island colonies in the Caribbean, a practice which peaked in the mid-1980s, when virtually every major U.S. corporation made interest payments to a Netherlands Antilles finance subsidiary. The "Antilles sandwich" strategy exploited the difference between high U.S. withholding tax rates that applied to interest payments made to most foreign lenders, and the zero rate of tax that applied to U.S. ...

Two court decisions in late 1998 ruled against the use of corporate tax shelters. The Tax Court ruled in ASA Investerings Partnership v. Commissioner that tax shelters provided by an investment bank were not valid because the bank was not actually a partner in an arrangement meant to represent the bank as a partner. The US 3d Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the Tax Court's decision in ACM v. Commissioner, ruling that a series of collateral swaps arranged by Merrill Lynch to reduce taxes on a $105 mil sale by Colgate-Palmolive Co. did not have economic substance.

Aruba peacefully stretches out welcoming the smooth descent of the American Airlines jet on to the runway of the new $67 million (U.S. Customs Clearance) Queen Beatriz International Airport. In the distance, rugged Mt. Hooiberg, prickly with cactus, and the healing aloe plant, stands guarding the 70 square miles of the most westerly of the "ABC" (Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao) islands. The voice of the island is warm like the weather (82 degrees year-round), gentle like the tradewinds that shape the signature watapana (divi-divi) trees, and diverse like the English, Spanish, Dutch and (our local language) Papiamento that greets you. Bon-bini! Welcome to my island...my birthplace. . .mi Aruba.
