Every so often, I read an article predicting that the US and other major countries are about to force nations that offer “citizenship by investment programs” (CIPs) to shut them down.
Of course, the authors of these articles tend to also be promoters of one or another such program. They have a vested interest in getting as many boots through the front door as possible. And as we all know, fear is a fantastic motivator.
Anything’s possible, I suppose, but the fact is that, far from being shut down, these programs are proliferating. If the powers-that-be want them to end, they’re not doing a very good job.
