Beauty Offshore: A Caribbean Passport For A Chinese Restaurateur

“When Zhang Lan decided last year to file for an IPO in Hong Kong for her restaurant group South Beauty, she reorganized her holdings under an entity in the Cayman Islands. However, she didn’t just move her company offshore. She did the same to herself, applying for fast-track citizenship in the Caribbean state of St. Kitts & Nevis (pop. 50,000) under an investment scheme. Three months later a passport was delivered to her office in Beijing. In June 2012 Zhang filed for a share offering in Hong Kong as the foreign principal of South Beauty Investment Co. Ltd., a Cayman-registered company that earns its revenues in mainland China.”
