This is also a result of advisors in the region being incentivized by commissions, instead of an individual’s best interests.
This problem is further compounded by a lack of awareness and understanding when it comes to making well-informed investment decisions.
After years in the industry, having seen these industry problems — we decided to do something about it.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Vault different?
.svg)
At Vault, we believe in putting our clients first, empowering them to make conscious investment choices. Unlike big banks that are often incentivized by commissions or product sales, we're incentivized for your long-term success. We offer a personalized approach to investing that takes into account your unique financial goals, risk tolerance, and other factors, and we use cutting-edge technology to provide you with a seamless investing experience.
Do I have to pay taxes when Vault opens an offshore US account for me?
Vault is designed for non-US residents and nationals; therefore, we do not offer services to American citizens or residents. Our diversified portfolios are designed for non-US taxpayers. All underlying investments in the Diversified Portfolios are UCITS domiciled in Ireland or Luxembourg. Consequently, no capital gains, withholding, or income tax applies to our diversified portfolios. A prerequisite of opening an account is signing a W8Ben form confirming that you are not a US tax resident. Therefore, interest on cash holdings is tax-exempt, as there is no US withholding or US tax implications. You may have tax implications based on your country of residence; therefore, we always recommend you speak with your tax advisor to assess any local repercussions. However, for clients who are only tax residents in the UAE, you do not have any withholding, income, or capital gains taxes on your holdings through Vault.
Master wealth management for success.
