In this edition of your Quarterly Wealth Advisory, Jeff D. Opdyke interviewed Dr. Chris Kaelin to discuss the growing popularity of “Golden Visas” and citizenship-by-investment programs among Americans.
The world is a demonstrably more unstable place than it was a generation ago. As we’ve seen recently with the COVID pandemic and the ongoing war in Ukraine, unexpected events are frequently emerging to reshape the political and economic landscape.
In a volatile world like this, you want a Plan B…a way to travel to a safe haven where you can keep your family and your wealth secure in turbulent times. And for that you need a second passport or an overseas residence visa.
There are many ways to get a second passport. But undoubtedly the fastest are Golden Visas or citizenship-by-investment programs. These programs allow you to get a residence visa or a second passport from another country simply by investing a certain sum there.
Dr. Chris Kaelin helped pioneer this concept decades ago. Today, he is the chairman of Henley & Partners, a renowned consulting firm that specializes in residence and citizenship by investment.
In this edition of your Quarterly Wealth Advisory, Jeff spoke to Chris about how these programs work and how much they cost.
Chris also tackled some of the misconceptions around second passports, and shared his thoughts on some of the best citizenship-by-investment options out there today.
