Offshore has two principle meanings:

  1. Physical - in the sea away from the shore; not on the shoreline but out to sea.
  2. Financial - a relative term generally applied to low tax jurisdictions on "off-shore" islands - hence the association with the physical meaning. Many of these islands encourage the formation of letterbox companies, which are used to conceal the beneficiary owner for various purposes (hiding and laundering narcodollars or the proceeds from other illicit activities, parking funds in rapidly depreciating currencies, hiding assets in divorce proceedings etc.)

Note: Not all offshore centres are in a physical respect offshore as the term would suggest, e.g. Dublin, Delaware (USA) or Switzerland.
