Canada

The Canadian Government introduced its Immigrant Investor Programme in 1986 with a view to attracting successful business immigrants to Canada. Through a suitable, guaranteed investment in the Canadian economy, investor immigrants become eligible for permanent residence in Canada and, eventually, Canadian citizenship.

How we can help
Together with HSBC Capital (Canada) Inc and their selection of specialist Canadian immigration lawyers, HSBC Private Bank provides an “all inclusive” package that covers:

  • Financing facilities offered by HSBC Capital to complete the required investment
  • Assistance by a Canadian immigration lawyer to steer the application through the various procedures
  • Pre-immigration tax-advice
  • Comprehensive banking services upon arrival in Canada by HSBC Bank Canada
  • Relocation assistance by HSBC Capital

Do you qualify?
The basic requirements for qualification under this programme are:

  • Appropriate “business experience” as defined in the programme (effectively meaning that the applicant has suitable managerial experience or owns a successful business)
  • A personal net worth of at least C$800,000 (including spouse)
  • Available funds (whether personal or acquired through financing) to make the required C$400,000 investment
  • Good health and no criminal record

If you believe you can meet these requirements and are interested in migrating to Canada, please contact us.
