I've started looking into info on investing in foreign countries. It looks like the only way to do it is with a broker. I'm just looking for some basic info. One example is Panama with CD rates ,specifically with credit unions, that I can't "confirm" anywhere, of 7 to 8%. I've also found info stating you need to be a resident of Panama to invest. Anyone have some info on this? or actual rates of return? Brokerage fees? Risks? Any input? Thanks in advance.
