[PRNewswire] 핸리 & 파트너스, 새로운 조사 결과 발표

-- Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index

(런던 2021년 9월 14일 PRNewswire=연합뉴스) 미중 무역전쟁, 코로나19와 재택근무, 그리고 G20에 의한 글로벌 법인세 최저세율 제안 등, 다양한 요인으로 인해 사업과 인재의 재배치가 증가함에 따라, 세계정세의 전망이 극적으로 달라지고 있다. 이에 핸리 & 파트너스(Henley & Partners)[https://www.henleyglobal.com/ ]가 Deep Knowledge Analytics[https://www.dka.global/ ]와 공동으로 Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index[https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/best-residence-investment-cities-for-business-index ]를 발표했다.

이 독특한 새 지수는 국제 기업가, 기업 소유주, 전문가 및 개인 고자산가가 투자 이주 프로그램[https://www.henleyglobal.com/countries ]을 통해 체류 허가를 받을 수 있는 전 세계 주요 25개의 수도 및 도시 순위를 선정한다. 사용자는 쌍방향 도구를 이용해 팬데믹 이후 본사, 간부, 직원 및 자신과 가족이 이주할 최고의 장소에 대해 데이터 중심의 전략적 결정을 내리는 데 가장 중요한 여러 요인을 선택할 수 있다.

Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index[https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/best-residence-investment-cities-for-business-index ]는 가장 시급한 재배치 고려 요건 10가지에 따라 도시 순위를 선정하기 위해 5개 지역에서 1,000개가 넘는 데이터 포인트와 40개가 넘는 매개변수 및 하위 매개변수를 이용한다. 해당 10가지 요건은 라이프스타일, 세금, 교육, 부동산, 의료, 보안, 기반시설, 안정성, 코로나19에 대한 안전성, 그리고 관련 투자 이민(Residence-by-investment)[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment ] 프로그램이 포함된다.

FutureMap 설립자이자 곧 출판 예정인 'MOVE: The Forces Uprooting Us[https://www.paragkhanna.com/book/move/ ]'의 저자인 Dr. Parag Khanna [https://www.paragkhanna.com/ ]는 자산과 문화적 차이가 큰 나라가 많은 시대인 만큼, 나라보다는 주요 도시에 초점을 맞춘 순위가 반갑다고 언급했다. 그는 "기술 연결성은 수백만 명의 시민들에게 새로운 이동성 벡터를 만들어주고 있다"라고, "클라우드로 훨씬 더 많은 일을 하는 세계로 진화하고 있지만, 간부와 직원은 여전히 특정 장소에 있어야 한다"라고 언급했다. 그는 "팬데믹부터 갈등과 기후 변화에 이르기까지, 기업이 당면한 다양한 위험에 비춰볼 때 어느 곳에서 확장하고 재배치할지 매우 신중하게 고민해야 할 것"이라면서 "다양한 시나리오에서 사업 연속성 역량에 따라 높은 신뢰도를 제공하는 허브를 찾아야 할 것"이라고 설명했다.

이 지수에서 1~5위의 상위권에 오른 도시는 런던[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/united-kingdom ](1위), 뉴욕[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/united-states ](2위), 시드니[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/australia ](3위), 싱가포르[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/singapore ](4위), 취리히[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/switzerland ](5위)였다. 상위 5개 도시 모두 보안, 기반시설 및 안정성 기준에서 최고점을 얻었고, 시드니는 보안 부문에서 전체 1위를 기록했다.

투자 이민 프로그램 측면에서 최고 점수를 받은 도시는 빈[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/austria ](9위), 리스본[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/portugal ](14위), 로마[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/italy ](16위), 취리히[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/switzerland ](5위), 아테네[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/greece ](20위)였다.

핸리 & 파트너스 CEO Dr. Juerg Steffen[https://www.henleyglobal.com/about/key-people/dr-juerg-steffen ]은 "이 지수는 자신과 가족이 거주하고, 일하며, 공부하고, 투자할 수 있는 도시 측면에서 선택권을 부여하는 수단으로, 투자 이주[https://www.henleyglobal.com/countries ]를 고려하는 이들에게 매우 중요한 정보를 제공한다"고 밝혔다. 그는 "투자 이민[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment ] 프로그램은 유동성에 대비하고, 팬데믹 세계의 질서에서 새로운 기회를 이용하기 위해 여러 가지 보완적인 거주와 시민권 옵션으로 구성된 이주 포트폴리오[https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/global-mobility-report/2021-q2/global-mobility-trends/sophisticated-entrepreneurs-choose-domicile-diversification-to-secure-enhanced-value-and-yield-through-global-mobility ]를 구성할 채널을 제공한다"라고 설명했다.

비용에 합당한 가치 측면에서, 두바이[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment ](11위), 리가[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/latvia ](17위), 리마솔[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/cyprus ](19위), 방콕[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/thailand ](23위), 포트 루이스[https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/mauritius ](24위)는 투자를 통한 거주권을 얻을 수 있는 세금 친화적이고 가격 합리적이며, 생활 수준이 높은 도시 옵션을 제공하는 것으로 나타났다.

핸리 & 파트너스 개인 고객 그룹 책임자 Dominic Volek[https://www.henleyglobal.com/about/key-people/dominic-volek ]에 따르면, Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index[https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/best-residence-investment-cities-for-business-index ]의 주요 결과는 바로 코로나19 이후에 이주를 고민하는 부유하고 재능 있는 개인에게 풍부한 기회가 있다는 것이다. 그는 "가족을 위한 새로운 거주지 옵션[https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/global-mobility-report/2021-q2/global-mobility-trends/sophisticated-entrepreneurs-choose-domicile-diversification-to-secure-enhanced-value-and-yield-through-global-mobility ]을 모색하는 한편, 사업 재배치를 고민하는 투자자가 점점 증가하고 있다"라며, "이러한 경향은 팬데믹 이전에 이미 시작됐고, 이제는 점점 더 빨라지는 추세"라고 말했다. 이어 그는 "25개 도시가 하나같이 적극적으로 해외 투자자를 환영하고 있다"면서 "일부 도시가 확실한 선두자리를 지키고 있지만, 도시마다 독특한 강점과 특별한 매력이 있다"라고 설명했다.

New Research Reveals Top Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business

LONDON, Sept. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- In response to a dramatically changing global landscape, with business and talent relocation on the rise for a host of factors ― from the US-China trade wars, to Covid-19 and remote work, and the G20 proposal for a global minimum corporate income tax ― Henley & Partners [https://www.henleyglobal.com/ ] in partnership with Deep Knowledge Analytics [https://www.dka.global/ ] has launched the Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index [https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/best-residence-investment-cities-for-business-index ].

This unique new index ranks the leading 25 capitals and cities around the world that international entrepreneurs, company owners, professionals, and high-net-worth individuals can acquire residence in through investment migration programs [https://www.henleyglobal.com/countries ]. Using an interactive tool, users can select the different factors that matter most to them to make strategic, data-driven decisions about where best to locate their headquarters, executives, employees, and themselves and their families in the post-pandemic landscape.

Spanning five regions, the Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index [https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/best-residence-investment-cities-for-business-index ] taps into over 1,000 data points and more than 40 different parameters and sub-parameters to rank the cities according to 10 main categories that represent the most pressing relocation considerations: lifestyle, tax, education, real estate, healthcare, security, infrastructure, and stability, as well as Covid safety and the relevant investment migration [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment ] program.

Dr. Parag Khanna [https://www.paragkhanna.com/ ], FutureMap Founder and author of upcoming book MOVE: The Forces Uprooting Us [https://www.paragkhanna.com/book/move/ ], says that at a time when nations are plagued by great disparities in wealth and culture, the focus on leading cities rather than countries is very welcome. "Technological connectivity is creating new vectors of mobility for millions of people. Though we are evolving towards a world in which ever more work is conducted in the cloud, management and employees still have to be somewhere, and given the diverse risks businesses face, from pandemics to conflict to climate change, they must think very carefully about where to expand or relocate, seeking hubs that offer a high degree of reliability in their capacity for business continuity under diverse scenarios."

The five cities that take the top spots in the index ― London [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/united-kingdom ] (1st), New York [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/united-states ] (2nd), Sydney [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/australia ] (3rd), Singapore [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/singapore ] (4th), and Zurich [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/switzerland ] (5th) ― all score highest in security, infrastructure, and stability, with Sydney taking the number one spot overall for security.

Highest scoring in terms of residence-by-investment program offerings are Vienna [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/austria ] (9th) and Lisbon [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/portugal ] (14th), followed by Rome [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/italy ] (16th) and Zurich [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/switzerland ] (5th), and then Athens [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/greece ] (20th).

CEO of Henley & Partners Dr. Juerg Steffen [https://www.henleyglobal.com/about/key-people/dr-juerg-steffen ] says the index is invaluable to those considering investment migration [https://www.henleyglobal.com/countries ] as a means of creating optionality in terms of where they and their families can live, work, study, and invest. "Residence-by-investment [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment ] programs provide a channel for building a migration portfolio [https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/global-mobility-report/2021-q2/global-mobility-trends/sophisticated-entrepreneurs-choose-domicile-diversification-to-secure-enhanced-value-and-yield-through-global-mobility ] of multiple complementary residence and citizenship options to hedge against volatility and take advantage of new opportunities in the pandemic world order."

When it comes to value for money, Dubai [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment ] (11th), Riga [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/latvia ] (17th), Limassol [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/cyprus ] (19th), Bangkok [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/thailand ] (23rd), and Port Louis [https://www.henleyglobal.com/residence-investment/mauritius ] (24th) all offer tax-friendly, affordable, high-standard-of-living options for residence through investment.

Dominic Volek [https://www.henleyglobal.com/about/key-people/dominic-volek ], Group Head of Private Clients at Henley & Partners, says the key takeout from the Best Residence-by-Investment Cities for Business Index [https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/best-residence-investment-cities-for-business-index ] is that there are abundant opportunities for affluent and talented individuals who are considering moving in the wake of Covid-19. "Along with seeking out new domicile options [https://www.henleyglobal.com/publications/global-mobility-report/2021-q2/global-mobility-trends/sophisticated-entrepreneurs-choose-domicile-diversification-to-secure-enhanced-value-and-yield-through-global-mobility ] for their families, more and more investors are considering relocating their businesses. This trend had begun pre-pandemic, but it is accelerating. All 25 cities are proactively welcoming foreign investors, and while some are clearly leading the pack, each has its strengths and particular appeal."
