Offshore foundations are often used as a suitable alternative to which similar type of arrangement?

Offshore foundations are often considered alternatives to trusts, as both are used for wealth structuring, asset protection, and estate planning. However, unlike trusts, foundations are independent legal entities and can provide greater control to the founder.

Limited liability partnerships (A): LLPs are business entities, not typically used for wealth management.

Credit unions (B): These are financial cooperatives, unrelated to wealth structuring.

SICAVs (D): SICAVs are investment funds, not wealth-structuring vehicles.
