Malta is increasingly being regarded as an optimal destination, not only by tourists and travellers but increasingly by High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI) and retirees looking for a good quality of life. Numerous individuals are attracted to the tiny archipelago and relocate to Malta every year. Primarily, Malta is the perfect location to expand business, to retire with peace of mind, and relocate with the family in the smoothest way possible.
