May 25, 2017, the National Statistical Office of Great Britain published a quarterly report on migration statistics, reports Henley & Partners.
According to the report, in 2016, long-term "clean" migration (the difference between coming to the country and leaving the country) was 248 000 people, which is 84 000 less than in 2015. This change was caused by a significant increase in the number of EU citizens leaving the country (by 31,000 more), as well as a decrease in the number of people coming to the UK (43,000 fewer).
At the same time, the number of foreigners applying for an investor visa Tier 1 (Investor) is growing. If 42 people received visas in the first quarter of 2016, there were 75 visas in 2017. After the announcement of the results of the Brexit referendum, the number of foreigners wishing to invest from 2 GBP million and get the residence of the country increased by 80%.
The British government published data on foreign investors who applied for a Tier 1 ("Investor") visa after the announcement of the results of the referendum on the withdrawal of the UK from the EU.
Peter Krummenacher, partner of Henley & Partners: "Before the decision on Brexit and its consequences, investors sought alternatives and investment programs that allow them to live and work in the UK without restrictions (for example, Cyprus and Malta), but after that they again became interested in the direct opportunity to live and lead Business in the country.
