Ron Mendelson
Founder and Strategic Advisor to International Entrepreneurs in San José Province, Costa Rica
For nearly three decades, I have advised entrepreneurs, investors and regulated businesses on complex cross-border matters involving international structuring, regulatory strategy, market entry, governance and M&A.
I founded Fast Offshore in 1998 and have since worked across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory cycles, helping clients navigate decisions where legal structure, commercial strategy, banking, compliance and long-term value intersect.
My work today is primarily strategic. I advise founders and principals on how a business should be structured, where it should be regulated, what risks need to be addressed, and how present-day decisions may affect banking, investment, acquisition or eventual exit.
Fast Offshore provides the infrastructure to implement these strategies, but my personal focus is on the decisions that come before execution: jurisdiction, structure, regulatory exposure, commercial implications and long-term optionality.
I work best with international entrepreneurs and established operators for whom getting the structure right matters more than simply finding the fastest or cheapest solution.
Areas of focus:
Strategic Advisory · Cross-Border Regulation · International Structuring · Regulated Markets · M&A · Governance · Banking & Payments
