Worldway Group Comprehensive News: In the past year of 2015, the surge in Chinese investment and tourism focused on Spain, becoming a highlight of China-Spain economic and trade relations. The influx of a large amount of Chinese capital has not only contributed to Spain's economic recovery but has also further improved the image of China and Chinese residents in Spain. According to preliminary statistics, Chinese investment in Spain exceeded 1 billion euros in 2015, setting a record. Worldway immigration experts predict that as major Chinese enterprises continue to expand their presence in Spain, Chinese investment will exceed 2.2 billion euros in 2016. Meanwhile, individual Chinese investors are increasingly choosing property-based immigration in Spain to better explore the market, demonstrating its unique appeal.
Due to unique economic development opportunities and a superior investment environment, there are currently about 75 large-scale Chinese enterprises with investment projects in Spain. These companies include China Construction Bank, Wanda Group, Fosun Group, Huawei, ZTE, Lenovo, Haier, Cisco, COSCO Group, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and Air China, among others. The investment boom by Chinese enterprises in Spain has also made China one of the top ten investor countries in Spain.
It is understood that there are three major potential large-scale investments by China in Spain in 2016. First, the acquisition of the well-known Spanish resort project Marina d'Or by China's Wanda Group; second, the investment in the Madrid gas sales company's gas pipeline network project by Ginkgo Tree Investment, a company under the State Administration of Foreign Exchange; and third, the acquisition of Air Europa by Hainan Airlines.
From the current situation, Chinese enterprises are very optimistic about Spain's real estate, tourism, food industry, and new energy sectors. Consequently, most of the investments made so far are concentrated in these industries. Moreover, the enthusiasm for Chinese investment in Spain will continue in the coming years, and property-based immigration to Spain will be highly popular.
Spain offers the following attractions to Chinese investors: strong economic growth following the recession, a high degree of industrialization (highly developed highways, airports, automated container ports, tourism, solar power generation, automotive manufacturing, food and textile industries, etc.), low labor costs, and a superior strategic geographical location. Worldway Spanish immigration experts note that the Spanish investment immigration law stipulates that an investment of 500,000 euros allows for the rapid acquisition of Spanish residency. Since the new Spanish immigration policy took effect on July 29, 2015, the validity period for residency renewal has been extended, and there are no rigid residency requirements. After the main applicant immigrates, their parents, parents-in-law, minor children, adult disabled children, or adult unmarried economically dependent children can also obtain status simultaneously, truly achieving benefits for three generations through one property purchase. Such an attractive immigration policy has greatly boosted the Spanish real estate market and attracted global capital for investment. Chinese investment in Spain is set to continue breaking records in 2016. Customers interested in property-based immigration to Spain can consult: 400-138-2929
