Dear Attendee,
Following the great success of the first Global Residence & Citizenship-by-Investment Conference in Dubai last year, co-organized by HSBC and Henley & Partners, a second conference will be held this November in Hong Kong.
The Conference will again address important and current issues of interest to private clients who are spreading their assets and activities internationally and who are looking to relocate for personal or business reasons.
Changes of residence often trigger important opportunities for clients and are therefore an increasingly important aspect of international solutions in private client planning. Accordingly, this conference focuses on the most important residence and citizenship-by-investment options which are currently available to the affluent international client.
Leading experts from HSBC and Henley & Partners will give an up-to-date overview of residence and citizenship possibilities in the most attractive countries. Additionally, it is a special honor for us and we are very pleased that the Prime Minister of St. Kitts & Nevis, The Hon. Dr. Denzil Douglas, has committed to speak at this event.
The entire program has been carefully designed to provide valuable insights to private client advisors who wish to educate themselves about what is available and what is possible when it comes to residence and citizenship solutions. The general session on 19 November will give the necessary overview, whereas on 20 and 21 November individual workshops and one-on-one meetings with the various experts will provide ample opportunities to learn in detail about the residence and citizenship possibilities that exist in the different countries.
We look forward to seeing you in Hong Kong on 19 - 21 November in a professional and friendly environment in the presence of leading experts.
