Why is the Golden Visa Spain so attractive for Chinese investors?
The expatriate community of Chinese expatriates in Spain is increasingly growing. So much so that in recent years they have become one of the groups with the largest presence in the Mediterranean country.
Moreover, although unemployment rates in Spain have been very high in recent years, unemployment does not seem to affect the Chinese community. Their active population is larger among their group and amounts to approximately 72% of the total, which puts their unemployment rate at approximately 2.3%. This demonstrates both the Chinese people’s sense of community and their resilience to thrive.
The more relaxed pace of life in Spain, along with it’s amazing architecture, beautiful beaches, great culture and many activities, including economic ones; mix together to offer Chinese investors unique opportunities to grow a business, and to enjoy a great life.
