Indian HNIs Seek New Shores After Malta's Citizenship Scheme Closure

Indian HNIs Seek New Shores After Malta's Citizenship Scheme Closure

Rich Indians are looking for new places to live or get citizenship because a popular way to get citizenship in Malta was shut down by the EU.

Malta used to let people become citizens if they invested a lot of money, but now that's not allowed.

Because of this, wealthy Indians are now looking at places like the US, UAE, and some Caribbean islands, which offer similar programs.

These places let people become residents or citizens if they invest.

Some countries, like New Zealand and Portugal, offer different ways to become a citizen too.

This is because the old program in Malta is now seen as less safe.
