Questions, answered.

Is offshore banking legal?

+

Mariner accounts begin at USD 250,000. Navigator and Sovereign tiers begin at USD 2M and USD 25M respectively.

How long does onboarding take?

+

Typically two to four weeks from introduction to activation, depending on jurisdiction and complexity.

Can I hold digital assets?

+

Yes. Our institutional desk offers insured cold-storage custody for major digital assets alongside traditional securities.

Do I need to travel to open an account?

Not necessarily. Onboarding meetings can be held remotely via secure video, or in person at any of our four offices.
