Financial Advice for Expats

Whether you are a young executive planning your first move overseas or a high net worth individual, there are many financial matters to consider when moving abroad. These include opening a bank account and buying health insurance or life insurance to tax planning, pensions and offshore investments.

Most of the best international companies offer their employees some kind financial advice before their move abroad, but those without the support of a big company HR team, or relocation firm should consider taking advice from an independent financial advisor before moving abroad.

As part of our mission to offer expats all the essential information on their new home, Expat Arrivals will be commissioning and sourcing articles on expat financial advice from experts worldwide:
