Investing at the Forefront to Seize Early Dividends

Buying Potential Stocks on the Eve of Market Explosions

This is likely the lifelong pursuit of many investors

When it comes to investment immigration

Investing early before potential projects become popular

Gaining early returns and enjoying an international lifestyle early

Is an incredibly happy thing

Now, another "potential stock" has shown signs of becoming popular

A future value depression and a current hot investment destination

That is: the romantic country spanning Europe and Asia—Turkey

 

Worldway Group has learned: As of now, the number of applications for Turkish residence permits in 2019 has reached 992,330, with 504,465 applications in Istanbul.

 

In 2018, there were 856,470 applicants for Turkish residence permits, an increase of 40% over the previous year, with more than 50% of the applications submitted in the world-famous city of Istanbul. The most popular residence program is the short-term residence visa, with 563,093 applications; followed by work visas, with 85,840 applications; then student (higher education) residence visas, with 79,255 applications; family (or marriage) residence visas, with 75,122 applications; and residence visas for other reasons, with 53,190 applications.

At the same time, in the government gazette dated September 18, 2018, the Turkish government reduced the real estate investment amount from $1 million to $250,000, a direct reduction of 75%; and reduced the deposit amount from $3 million to $500,000, a direct reduction of 83%, significantly lowering the threshold for investors to invest in Turkey. Such a cost-effective passport program has become the focus of high-net-worth individuals. According to government reports, in the first five weeks after the implementation of the new Turkish regulations, more than 200 people applied for Turkish passports.

 

The above data shows that Turkey is actually a major country of net immigration inflow. This also proves that Turkey has become a popular destination for investors to immigrate and relocate. So, why is Turkey so popular?

 

EU Candidate Country

 

As an EU candidate country, Turkey has been committed to "accession" reforms! Turkey applied to join the European Community (the predecessor of the EU) in 1987, obtained candidate status in 1999, and launched accession negotiations in 2005. According to the latest news from the German newspaper "Die Welt", Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Akdag expressed his firm determination again in an interview: Turkey will join the EU within 5 years at the latest!

 

Undoubtedly, after Turkey joins the EU, the gold content of its passport will rise sharply!

 

Rapid Development of Tourism

 

As the 10th most popular tourist destination in the world, according to a survey by the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Turkey attracted more than 38.6 million tourists in 2017. In the same year, the total turnover of the tourism industry reached $26 billion, ranking 8th in the world and 5th in Europe. The tourism sector has set an annual target: by 2023, the number of tourist arrivals will reach 50 million, and tourism revenue will reach $50 billion. The booming tourism industry in Turkey has further promoted the steady development of the Turkish economy and has also brought more investment opportunities to Turkey.

 

At the "2019 6th Self-Driving Tour Conference" held in China, Turkey won the "Best Overseas Destination" award. Moreover, not long ago, the payment method "Alipay", which is very popular among Chinese people, officially entered Turkey, which means that Chinese tourists and investors can use Alipay in physical stores in Turkey, including Turkish retail stores, shopping malls, hotels, and restaurants. This has also greatly facilitated Chinese investors going to Turkey for investment.

 

Rapid Economic Development

 

Turkey is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world and enjoys the reputation of a "New Diamond Country" in the international community. Turkey's average annual GDP growth from 2003 to 2016 reached 5.6%, and its GDP growth rate in 2017 was as high as 7.9%, ranking first among the G20. In 2017, its total GDP was $851.1 billion, ranking 17th in the world and 7th in Europe. According to the latest forecast by Standard Chartered Bank in 2019, Turkey is expected to become a veritable world power, and its GDP will rank among the top five in the world by 2030!

 

Investors Pour In, Real Estate Market Flourishes

 

Data shows that in the first 4 months of this year, foreigners purchased a total of 13,300 real estate properties in Turkey, an increase of 82% over the same period last year.
