To be clear, in Warren's wealth tax proposal, it doesn't matter where the wealth is located. If you're an American citizen, you would be required to pay the tax on all of your wealth above $50 million, no matter where it is.
The alternative is to move your money overseas and renounce your American citizenship, at which point you would owe a 40% exit tax.
One could certainly hide their assets overseas, but that would be tax fraud, and if discovered would result in prison time for both accountant and wealthy individual.
