The future is becoming more and more unpredictable: a pandemic with the closure of borders to travel, the growth of armed conflicts, political battles and the fragmentation of society are rapidly becoming global in nature – many yesterday’s opportunities are becoming inaccessible today.
As a result, there is a growing demand and interest among investors to provide a safe haven in the form of obtaining a second citizenship, which provides personal protection through access to basic human rights, which at any time can easily be taken away from a citizen of any one state in the finally fixed realities of our time.
“In 2023, it is predicted that 125,000 millionaires will look to relocate to more secure and attractive destinations around the world. And it is not just the ultra-wealthy who are looking to move,” – says Caroline Halton, Foresight Practitioner and Communication Specialist, – “… The continued popularity of second, or even multiple citizenships, can be expected as hard-working business people continue to shore up their defences — protecting their finances; growing their businesses and securing better education, healthcare and lifestyle prospects.”
At the same time, pressure and requirements for countries with existing citizenship programmes are increasing every year. As a result, only those who quickly adapt to new challenges in crisis circumstances remain on the market and strictly adhere to high standards in screening applicants for citizenship, while providing the best offer and service.
