About Henley & Partners

Оглавление

The production of this report has been made possible by the generous sponsorship of Henley & Partners – the global leader in residence and citizenship planning.

The concept of residence and citizenship planning was created by Henley & Partners in the 1990s, at a time when most international lawyers and wealth planning professionals did not consider the subject to be of much relevance.

Over the years, Henley & Partners has emerged as the world’s leading firm specializing and focused in this particular area of practice. International residence and citizenship planning has itself become a major topic among the increasing number of internationally mobile entrepreneurs, as well as many wealthy individuals and families, who are interested in looking at alternative residence and citizenship solutions.

Lawyers such as Christian H. Kälin, as well as many others, developed the discipline together with an entire group of specialists who now work at Henley & Partners. The firm’s Chief Executive Officer, Eric G. Major, who formerly built the most important Canadian immigrant investor business at HSBC, is another guiding light in the area of global residence and citizenship planning.

Today, individua clients as well as advisors and law firms worldwide rely on Henley & Partners for specialized advice and assistance in this delicate area where its expertise and experience are second to none.

The firm’s renowned Residence and Citizenship Practice Group advises private clients and their close advisors on investor immigration and citizenship solutions. Henley & Partners is in contact with the government authorities of all relevant countries and constantly monitors the worldwide situation. The firm also assists in designing, implementing and operating investor immigration programs and gives relevant advice to governments.

Two of the most recent mandates are from Antigua and Barbuda, where Henley & Partners acted as a special advisor to design, implement and administer the citizenship-by-investment program for this country; and Malta, where Henley & Partners won a public call for services and were awarded a Public Services Concession for the design, implementation and international promotion of the Malta Individual Investor Programme.

Besides advising clients on the possibilities of acquiring resident status, permanent residence and citizenship-by-investment, members of the Planning Group advise them on the (re-) acquisition of citizenship based on ancestry as well as on residence planning for private clients with a view to post-immigration citizenship acquisition.

Residence planning for private clients involves finding solutions for individuals and families who move internationally, own property in different countries and who often have complex international situations and requirements. Our combined services cover not only immigration and citizenship law, but also international private law, real estate structuring and more.

For many years, Henley & Partners has organized the Global Residence and Citizenship Conference, which is the most important such event in the world. It is held annually in November in different locations each year. To view the program of the next conference and for early registration discounts, please visit henleyglobal.com/events
