The growing interest in the Golden Visa has also led to an increase in content that misleads investors through programs that do not exist or are no longer valid.
Global interest in residency and citizenship by investment programs has recorded massive growth, rising from $20 billion before the pandemic to nearly $100 billion by 2025. However, this rapid growth has also brought about information pollution and misleading marketing activities on digital platforms.
Experts who have made important statements on the subject warn investors against programs that have officially ended or never existed still being marketed under the name “Golden Visa.”
MISLEADING INFORMATION PUTS INVESTMENTS AT RISK
Teuta Narazan, Founding Partner of Vesta Global, pointed out that the increasing demand for visa and residency programs creates fertile ground for abuse.
Narazan said, “Information that is not based on official sources and is outdated is circulating on social media. Programs and country regulations can change rapidly. It is essential for investors to act based on verified, up-to-date, and official data to protect their capital and future plans.”
