Breaking: Two New Citizenship By Investment Programs?
Summary
TLDRThis video discusses two new citizenship by investment (CBI) programs: one in the Solomon Islands and another proposed by a Ghanaian presidential candidate. The Solomon Islands' program offers visa-free travel to over 100 countries, including Canada and the Schengen Area, with a focus on stringent due diligence. Ghana's proposed program targets people of African ancestry, offering citizenship for a $50,000 investment. Both programs could be cost-effective options for those seeking a second passport, with potential benefits for travel and investment in Africa.
