Who We Are -
What We Do - Why We Are Different
Based
in Nassau since 1987, Norshield International, Inc. (formerly Comprehensive
Investor Services Limited) is an international investment management company
engaged in the development of innovative investment products designed to
benefit from the unique offshore jurisdiction afforded by the Bahamas.
Today, Norshield International offers sophisticated individuals, financial
institutions, and corporations a broad range of offshore investment opportunities
managed in accordance with our disciplined, long-term investment philosophy.
That philosophy focuses on global diversification, effective asset allocation,
and risk control.
- Under the expert guidance of Norshield International,
multiple investment managers are retained and their performance regularly
monitored in the development of a wide range of customized investment products
for institutional and private clients.

and managed global offshore investment products, as well as access to fund
administration services, record keeping and professional auditing, and
introductions to high-quality professional and institutional relationships

of International Business Companies (IBCs) in the Bahamas and the creation
of offshore Bahamian trusts. In addition, the professionals at Norshield
International can facilitate all aspects of the offshore banking, trust
and investment management requirements of institutional and private clients.
Global Offshore Trading Management
As
trading manager, Norshield International offers investors the opportunity
to achieve superior, long-term returns from a range of traditional and
derivative-based global investment opportunities, as well as to benefit
from Bahamian tax legislation and investor protection and confidentiality.
Norshield International portfolios combine traditional
instruments such as government treasury bills and bonds or corporate securities
with derivatives and other quantitatively based instruments. Sophisticated
trading and hedging strategies are employed to deliver more effective asset
allocation and risk control. Multiple managers are retained to ensure broad
diversification for client assets based on geography, market, type of investment
opportunity and investment management style.
Registered as offshore investments, the wide range of
mutual funds and private placements currently offered by Norshield International
also provides investors with professional money management, asset diversification
and liquidity. Norshield portfolios are highly diversified by international
market, asset class, type of security, industry sector, term to maturity
and other criteria as appropriate.
No income, capital gains, or withholding taxes are payable
by Norshield International or its investors at source, as a result of Bahamian
tax legislation.
