The person behind your consultation
Sebastian Sauerborn
Founder of STM Corporate Group, living outside Germany since 2000 and at home in six countries since. Every English and French Latin America consultation on VidaLibrePlan is held by Sebastian himself.
“A second residency is not a luxury and not a fantasy of running away. It is an anchor dropped in different waters.”
Sebastian Sauerborn, The Brief
Background
Six countries, one profession
Born in Freiburg im Breisgau, on the edge of the Black Forest.
Joins PwC in Zurich. In 2000 he leaves Germany and lives in Freienbach, canton Schwyz, for three years.
Moves to London in May to work for Allianz, at a new marine and aviation insurance firm in the City.
Founds St Matthew in the City of London.
Moves to the United States, Miami first. Texas since 2011: a ranch in Bastrop County, then Austin.
Malta 2013-2014, a year in Lismore, County Waterford, Ireland (2014-2015), then Malta again 2015-2016.
Back in the United Kingdom for a while, with Edinburgh in Scotland as home.
Divides his time between Austin, Texas and London.
Switzerland, England, the United States, Malta, Ireland and Scotland: each move meant a new residence permit, a new bank and a new tax residence, the very questions a move to Latin America raises.
Latin America
Why Sebastian advises on Latin America
Sebastian advises entrepreneurs, investors and families on residency, cross-border tax and Plan B structures. On VidaLibrePlan he looks at your whole picture: which of the 12 countries fits your life, which residence visa gets you there, and what the move means for your tax at home.
His own rule is that a real Plan B has more than one page. A residence in Latin America is one anchor; the bank, the company and the tax residence behind it have to hold as well. The groundwork in the region is done by the VidaLibrePlan team.
