Offshore has no precise dictionary meaning: the word simplyreflects the fact that most low tax jurisdictions are islands. Loosely, it is used to mean outsidethe control of the highly-taxed Western nations, although those nations could have controlled thegrowth of offshore jurisdictions (International Offshore Financial Centres = IOFCs) much moretightly if they had wanted to. It is an interesting question, why they didn't -- maybe a combinationof individual self-interest and muddle?
