Could Montenegro Become a New Emerging Destination for UHNWI?
Objectives:
The article aims to offer a nuanced and comprehensive overview of what Montenegro currently has to offer to UHNWI by comparing it with jurisdictions like Hong Kong and Singapore, which are well- established hubs for HNWI. The goal is to present a balanced view that contrasts Montenegro's emerging status with the established practices of these renowned wealth management centers.
Applicable Jurisdiction:
Montenegro
Rationale for Selection:
Montenegro, known for its favourable tax treatment, burgeoning real estate market, ample investment opportunities, and a clear pathway to EU membership, positions itself as a potential magnet for UHNWI. However, the attractiveness of Montenegro as a destination for UHNWI is somewhat tempered by challenges such as the enforcement of rule of law and the underdevelopment of its legal infrastructure, which lacks critical structures such as trusts and family offices that traditionally appeal to UHNWI. Therefore, despite the positive image portrayed by mainstream media, potential investors must consider these legal and systemic challenges.
