We welcome Dr. Russell Attard Baldacchino
Key Takeaways from our conversation include:
One benefit of the Malta Permanent Residence Programme in its new form include the price tag
"With the revamped Malta Permanent Residence Programme, Malta certainly leads the way here. For a total cost of EUR 150,000 the application will cover the main applicant, spouse and any number of unmarried and principally dependent children (with no age limit)."
The added (Family) advantage of the Malta Permanent Residency Program versus the Greek Golden Visa or Portuguese Golden Visa
"Overall although other programmes in Europe do offer similar solutions, I do think that Malta has the greatest flexibility to include family members. Furthermore it is not limited to the present but the future. So if an applicant does apply as a sole applicant, a future spouse may be included and obviously as the application grows, children may be included in the application for free."
Why programmes with donation elements create a necessary tie between the investor and the host nation
".... At the end of the day this donation does give the applicant an opportunity to build a stronger bond with the Maltese community, whilst allowing for a personal touch that would have otherwise been missing."

What benefits it offers for families today and in the future. How potential applicants view the donation element of this programme and what draws investors to Malta as a second (safe) home in light of the ongoing pandemic?
