You might consider looking at Investment Trusts that are "international" (in terms of the companies they hold). Some possible considerations if yield is the thing!
Some popular ones oft discussed on the Lemon Fool.

You could buy shares in 3 or 4 (or all!) of these and get a highish yield from a basket of shares in many countries. There is no with holding tax to worry about, no W8-BEN form to fill in every 3 years and the shares can be traded readily. The price you buy/sell is in Sterling.
I'd also suggest a browse through the previous postings on this forum..or do what you've done and pose the question,
