Читать книгу Global Residence & Citizenship Handbook - Christian H. Kälin - Страница 49

For a person who cannot rely on the ancestral option there are residence and immigration options available to skilled people, investors and wealthy individuals in numerous countries:³⁰ Australia, the Bahamas, Canada, Hong Kong, Monaco, Singapore, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom are just a few examples of countries which offer residence to wealthy individuals and investors.

This book deals with the most attractive countries where residence permits are available to investors and wealthy individuals. Thus the emphasis is not just on general quality of life, business and employment opportunities (in which case for example Australia or New Zealand would be among the immigration countries of choice), but specifically on factors concerning wealthy individuals, such as personal tax, privacy and personal security. The countries have also been selected with a view of citizenship planning and the possibility of acquiring an attractive alternative citizenship with relative ease. All these countries are welcoming foreign persons who are willing to invest.
