So far, we know our second citizenship options by heart. In the 21st century, financial challenges are increasing, along with the influence of the main economic powers. Some experts say that getting second citizenship is not about luxury anymore, but a necessity, and Mundo couldn't agree more. There have been many changes to the CBI scenery, and alternative citizenship options seem to be emerging. We think it's interesting to consider CBI from this new perspective. Repeatedly, we have talked about the importance of second citizenship. This step covers two important fronts: an investment move, and the possibility to enhance your options.

We're proud to announce that Mundo has been present at an important real estate event in the international arena. September has been an interesting month, and everything points to us wrapping up the year with undebatable success. International conferences and expos are excellent places to meet partners and providers. However, they are mainly a place where we can connect with people, and this is exactly what Mundo did. The main protagonist of Mundo’s display was our very favorite: beautiful Panama, and not just any aspect of Panama, but a distinctive one. The MIPIF Expo was created to help people who are looking for real estate.

The search for a second citizenship is a long process because it entails an important decision. Even though acquiring a new nationality doesn't necessarily mean a major change in the applicant’s lifestyle, the matter goes deeper than that. Today we analyze the current situation in the Caribbean which promises superior monitoring, better due diligence, and enhanced CBI transparency in exchange for higher prices. Is this really how it’s going to be? Most current CBIs have flexible stay requirements and, in general, once the decision is made, the process is straightforward. Give or take, it requires a few months as long as certain conditions are met.

When you're wondering “where to establish my bank account”, words like Panama come to mind. Many other countries and jurisdictions are available for foreign banking. To name a few, there's Puerto Rico, the United States, and Saint Lucia. Nonetheless, at Mundo, we have noticed that Panama has peculiar aspects that are certainly advantageous for foreigners and, of course, locals. The advantages of banks are many even though they have detractors. Generally, the concept of banking is seen as restrictive from a nomad capitalist point of view. The history of central banking teaches us that their origins were linked to the idea of financing war.

Thinking about where to retire entails many factors and requires decision-making. It's necessary to consider things like real estate, political and economic factors, cost of living, and quality of life. Nonetheless, there's a key aspect that comes before anything else: legal residency. As ambassadors of the perpetual traveler philosophy, Mundo is committed to offering the best alternatives out there, and the residency for retirees in Panama is one of them. Let's find out how to access one of the best retirement options in Latin America. If you're looking for a place where to retire, here is Panama. 

Why do we need central banks? Do we need them really? These questions have been around for some time but gained weight in recent decades with the advent of cryptocurrency. Nowadays a bank account is vital in a person's financial plan whether it is for savings, investment, or operations. Mundo decided to write this piece because the evolution of central banks can teach us about the logic of the financial world today. A central bank is responsible for issuing currency and regulating financial activities, for example, the granting of credits. Their goals are to maintain prices, avoid inflation, and ensure long-term growth.

What is the best citizenship for a family? Where do you go when trying to move abroad with your loved ones? After the recent changes in the Caribbean, Mundo continues to analyze the CBI scenery in the region. One of the countries that has applied amendments beyond pricing is Antigua and Barbuda. We analyze who are the dependents that Antigua and Barbuda allows from now on. Many surprises have arisen after the Caribbean CBI countries signed the memorandum of agreement. Since day one we all knew that they were bound to apply changes starting June 30th.

When we think about getting citizenship on an island Vanuatu or the Caribbean comes to mind. While Saint Kitts has been a pioneer in the industry, its neighbors have followed giving birth to an interesting ecosystem when it comes to economic citizenship. Vanuatu, on the other hand, is much more secluded, it's far away from the main business centers and harder to reach. So why choose Vanuatu? Why do we keep talking about this island? Mundo decided to explore the situation of Vanuatu today in the CBI world. Vanuatu is an island country located in the heart of the Pacific Ocean.

In Panama, one can find different types of accommodation, from temporary condo rentals to monthly apartment rentals and luxury hotel suites. This is not surprising if we consider the ample real estate offers available in Panama. For the past two decades, the country has been home to luxury and innovative developments that fit both personal residencies and short-term condo rentals. When comparing condo vs hotel, tourists tend to prefer the latter. Short-term condo rentals are expected to present an annual growth of 10.87% compared with last year. Nonetheless, hotels continue to be among the favorite choices for tourists.
