Abstract

The materials presents a theoretical analysis of the concept and content of such a phenomenon as offshore zones. It is emphasized that due to the significant tax burden in most countries of the world, most enterprises are increasingly forced to look for ways to reduce the tax burden. One of the most popular such ways is to minimize taxes by withdrawing capital to offshore zones (jurisdictions). It is indicated that the problems of offshore zones are covered in the works of many domestic and foreign scholars.
