Offshore
Offshore investments involves investing in assets outside the country. These investments aim to diversify portfolios, access global markets, and potentially boost returns while managing risks. Benefits include diversification, access to global markets, potential for higher returns, and currency diversification. However, risks include currency fluctuations, geopolitical factors, and regulatory compliance.
