Offshore FX Global is focused on assisting clients with complex South African exchange control matters, particularly in cases where navigating banking and exchange control processes can be complex or unclear.

Our work is grounded in deep, practical experience across both regulatory frameworks and banking environments.

With over 38 years of experience within the South African Reserve Bank and exchange control systems, our team brings an in-depth understanding of approval pathways, regulatory interpretation, and the nuances involved in non-standard cases.

This is complemented by more than two decades of experience in foreign exchange and intermediary environments, supported by longstanding relationships across multiple banks and financial institutions. This combination provides a unique ability to understand how cases are assessed, where challenges arise, and how best to position applications for clarity and progression.

We work alongside clients and their professional advisers, including attorneys, tax specialists, and fiduciary firms, to structure and prepare exchange control applications and supporting documentation. Our role is to ensure that each case is approached in a structured, compliant, and well-prepared manner, aligned with regulatory expectations and banking processes.

All applications are submitted by the client through their authorised financial institution. We provide structuring, documentation, and administrative support only.

Andre Claassen

Founder | Offshore FX Global

With close to three decades of experience in the foreign exchange and cross-border capital space, Andre Claassen specialises in structuring and facilitating complex offshore fund transfers where standard banking channels are insufficient.

His work focuses on resolving situations involving blocked, restricted, or difficult-to-move South African funds — including legacy capital, trust structures, emigration-related transfers, and cases requiring SARB approval pathways.

Andre operates at the intersection of financial institutions, tax specialists, legal advisers, and fiduciary firms, ensuring that complex matters are structured correctly and executed through compliant channels.

With a strong network across the South African and international FX landscape, his approach is relationship-driven, detail-focused, and centred on delivering clear, workable outcomes in complex environments.
