The Things That Matter

Editor's note

In this issue, we have explored the theme of global mobility which encompasses immigration, employment and tax considerations as well as work force strategy. We have various articles from our UK offices (London and Oxford) and our oversees offices (Singapore and Hong Kong). We look at why the UK needs a new investor visa, what businesses need to know about employer of record, and how the lifestyle appeal of Oxford draws an affluent international community. We also explore the opportunities for families looking to relocate to Singapore, residency‑by‑investment in Hong Kong and the new path to US permanent residency with the Gold Card.
