(€511,292) in a Governmental Bond Portfolio for an investment period
of five years with no further payment required. At the end of the
five-year period, the full amount of BGN 1 million (€511,292) will be
returned to the investor without any accrued interest. The
investment is fully guaranteed by the government bonds.
Full Investment
For a set pre-paid fee, clients can leverage their capital by choosing the Financed Investment option. These individuals pay a reduced amount that will be used to finance a BGN 1 million (€511,292) closed 5.5-year loan from a chartered bank. This loan is initiated and repaid at no further cost to the investor.
Applicants choosing the Financed Investment option will need to
demonstrate net worldwide assets of €1 million, a requirement of the
chartered bank.
