Global Investor Program
Singapore has only 1 Investor Program to get Singapore PR directly, and that is through the Global Investor Program (GIP).
The Singapore government first introduced GIP for high net worth individuals (HNWI) with a substantial business track record, an entrepreneurial background, or a solid business or investment proposal regarding their future plans in Singapore.
The aim of the GIP is to attract foreign talents to invest in and be an integral part of the Singapore economy. In April 2012, the government abolished the previous Financial Investor Scheme, making the GIP the only way forward for immigration-via-investment into Singapore.
Even though the criteria are relatively straightforward, only 3 out of 10 applications are successful because GIP aims to attract the crème de la crème of foreign talents.
Xignam has been working with Private Banks, Real Estate Agencies, Insurance Agencies and Fund Managers to provide immigration services for HNWI internationally. Our experience and knowledge in this field and excellent client relationship management make us the number one choice to ensure a successful GIP application.
