A Warm Greeting From Mundo: As Christmas Lights Dim, The New Year 2026 Comes Into Focus

As this year draws to a close and the holiday rhythm settles in, the Mundo team wanted to share a short greeting before the New Year 2026 begins. This is a time to honor progress, share gratitude, and explore new possibilities—an ideal moment to revisit the topics that defined 2025 for Mundo and continue to guide us into the coming months.

Happy New Year 2026 From Mundo: Our 2025 Highlights Before Starting A New Cycle

Eb-5 Key Developments And Investor Insights

The EB-5 program remained an essential part of long-term planning throughout 2025. As holiday conversations shift toward future goals and the brightness of the New Year holidays, many families explore avenues that support meaningful growth and allow them to envision new chapters beyond their home markets.

Why EB-5 Continues To Matter

Many families kept an eye on EB-5 throughout the year because the rules were clear and the path itself felt predictable. Furthermore, the program doesn’t depend on the country of origin having an agreement with the US. The EB-5 threshold of 800,000 USD remained unchanged, making planning easier for applicants considering qualifying projects. The filing process unfolded step by step: it began with the I-526E and eventually moved to the I-829 once the investment results could be shown. This stability made EB-5 a reliable component of long-range strategies leading into the New Year 2026.

Breakthrough Of The Year: Why São Tomé Drew Attention Just Before Starting The New Year 2026

One of the standout moments for Mundo this year was receiving approval to work as a licensed agent for the São Tomé program. For our team, this was more than a formal milestone; it opened a set of opportunities we had been preparing for throughout the year. 

Why Investors Took Notice

São Tomé brought together several qualities that quickly caught attention. Investment options begin at 90,000 USD, approvals can be completed in as few as 6 to 8 weeks, and broader family inclusion allows households to plan their futures with greater flexibility. These qualities position the program as one of the most compelling developments of the year and add a sense of momentum as we approach festive moments that often spark renewed planning. The Sao Tome program is available for all nationalities, and thus it constitutes a great excuse for a toast at Mundo’s New Year's Eve party.

Celebrating New Year’s Holidays In A Reliable Jurisdiction: St. Kitts & Nevis CBI And The Nevis Trust

A Closer Look At St. Kitts & Nevis

For many investors, the St. Kitts & Nevis program remained a steady, familiar option whose monitoring and due diligence processes have been strengthened in the past year. Its long presence on the market and the country’s careful review process helped reinforce trust. People who preferred a structured framework often gravitated toward this route when weighing their international plans. 

The Role Of The Nevis Trust In Practical Planning

Another area that remained important for us this year was the Nevis Trust. For many clients, a trust means foremost protection — a way to shield assets, and to make this process easier. We offer three service levels: bronze, silver, and gold, each designed for different needs and levels of involvement. The structure matters because it helps families organize their inheritance with clarity and reduce the risks that often appear when assets are left unstructured. At Mundo, we can’t say Happy New Year 2026 if we don’t mention St Kitts and Nevis, one of the most reliable and convenient jurisdictions of 2025.

Panama’s Real Estate Market: A Core Focus For Mundo

Panama remained one of Mundo’s most cherished destinations due to its dynamic mix of investment opportunities. This past year, many clients paid close attention to properties in Casco Viejo, especially those designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Such listings are rare, so they naturally sparked curiosity. 

Others looked at places by the water or at newer buildings in Panama City, depending on what suited their plans and comfort expectations. Either way, each option carried its own rhythm and offered something different for long-term thinking.
