Industry players have framed Citizenship by Investment programs as a pathway to freedom, mobility and security for investors. When you flip the coin, the country offering the CBI grants a second citizenship in exchange for a financial contribution to the host country's economy. 

This episode will delve into the role of CBI programs in a world that has been changing fast. We hope to spark a debate regarding the impact of these programs.  

And to enrich this debate, we have invited two special guests who have joined us on previous episodes: Christian Nesheim, editor and founder of Investment Migration Insider; Jeff D Opdyke, editor at International Living Magazine and Patricia Casaburi, CEO of Global Citizen Solutions.
