CBI Industry Report 2026

The state of citizenship and residence by investment: what everything costs after the great repricing, who is actually buying, how regulation remade the product, every program change that mattered — and where the industry goes from here.

Three years remade this industry: Caribbean prices doubled under a new regional regulator, the EU's highest court forced Malta's program into redesign, Vanuatu lost European visa-free access, Spain and Australia closed their golden doors while Hungary and Hong Kong opened new ones — and the United States itself entered the market at USD 5 million. This report is our practice's annual account of what happened, what it costs now, and what happens next: six chapters, written for families and advisers who need the facts without the brochure gloss.

Read it alongside our standing references: the Passport Power Rankings 2026, the residence program guide, the descent hub, and the program comparison tool.
