As an IAM client, you can always count on dealing directly with a financial advisor who holds the highest professional credentials in their field and who has the experience to take a proactive approach to offering guidance specifically tailored to your situation. As a non-US citizen living in the United States you face financial considerations that may be quite different from those in your home country. Pension plans, taxation of income and investments, estate tax, and retirement and education savings accounts work differently in the United States than in other countries. Furthermore, for individuals and families with assets in both the United States and other countries, it is necessary to consider the cross-border implications of managing these assets. Cross-border tax, estate planning, and portfolio management are highly specialized fields – at IAM we have in-house expertise and a global network of cross-border professionals who help our clients address such financial planning concerns.

Retiring abroad is one of the most significant decisions an American can make and, when it’s done right, it's also one of the most rewarding.

A better quality of life, access to healthcare, cultural richness, and a new life adventure are real and achievable. However, so is the financial complexity that comes with them.

Retiring in another country doesn’t mean leaving the US financial system behind, as the US applies taxes and other rules on all its citizens regardless where in the world they live. So retiring abroad means managing your finances across two systems simultaneously, with US tax obligations, retirement account rules, and reporting requirements on one side, and local tax residency, banking access, and inheritance laws on the other.

In a new article, we outline some of the important financial planning considerations Americans need to understand before retiring abroad.

If you’re an American traveling perpetually abroad, you don’t need a fixed address to build wealth. However, you do need a plan.

One of the simplest and most effective ways to build wealth is to invest, and for American traveling perpetually overseas, this should remain US-based. IRAs, 401(k)s thankfully don’t disappear after you move abroad, but you may need to change broker to an expat friendly one. Investing in the US avoids the complex reporting requirements that come with foreign funds and accounts.

There are several other considerations for building wealth while traveling abroad. If you’d like to learn more about investing, banking, healthcare, and estate planning, read the full guide here:

Perpetually traveling, whether working remotely as a digital nomad, brings freedom but also financial planning challenges.
