More and more in SA say, 'We don't see a future, sadly' – Andrew Rissik from Sable International

Loading player...
More and more South Africans of all ages see no future for themselves in the country, according to Andrew Rissik from Sable International, the immigration specialists. However, he warns that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side – inflation, and high energy and living costs are a problem everywhere. So what should people who want a Plan B take into account to make sure they hedge their bets for an overseas move? Rissik told BizNews about the importance of having a strategy and choosing a destination where your skills are needed. He also highlighted that a Caribbean passport allows for business travel across the Schengen region, China and Russia and where the over 60s can move after retirement. Sable International is holding a Global Citizenship and Emigration Expo from October 27 to November 9 where those looking for an offshore strategy can discuss options with Sable migration specialists. – Linda van Tilburg Learn more about your ad choices.
