Leading international investment migration firm Henley & Partners welcomes US President Donald Trump’s proposal for a new «gold card» visa which would offer wealthy investors the right to live and work in the US and a pathway to citizenship in exchange for a $5 million investment.
The initiative will enhance US competitiveness in the global investment migration landscape by providing a clear and attractive investment route to citizenship for high-net-worth individuals seeking to contribute to the American economy.
CEO of Henley & Partners, Juerg Steffen, said: «The proposed gold card visa presents an exciting new opportunity for high-net-worth investors seeking US residence and citizenship. However, maintaining continuity and clarity in investor immigration policies is also crucially important.»
Guiding Investors
He encourages US authorities to ensure stability for investors by implementing a well-structured transition that safeguards existing programs such as the US EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program. Investors considering the EB-5 program should act swiftly under the current regulations, as their green card eligibility remains secure within the established framework.
«We remain committed to guiding investors through the evolving US immigration landscape and will continue engaging with all stakeholders, including the US government, to support economic growth while ensuring certainty for investors,» Steffen added.
