More foreign investors could soon flock in to work hard on Kiwi businesses. The Government's new Business Investor Visa will give foreign businesspeople who invest at least $2 million into an existing Kiwi business a fast-track to residency. If a business is worth $2 million, the applicant would have to buy it, and if it's worth more, they'd have to invest at least a quarter of its total value. Auckland Business Chamber Chief Executive Simon Bridges told Ryan Bridge this definitely justifies a fast-track to residency. He says the person who buys will have to work on the business for a period of time. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
