Isabel Tapp, founder of tappintomalta.com & owner of award-winning Dubai based PR agency AllDetails Middle East, recently joined forces with Maltese firm WDM International to host an event in Dubai, promoting the Malta Citizenship by Investment - Individual Investor Programme (IIP) to high-net-worth individuals in the GCC region.

The event was held at the Capital Club in the Dubai International Financial District. It was attended by Capital Club members and select guests and was addressed by Dr De Giovanni, Partner at WDM International. During the event Dr De Giovanni introduced the parameters and benefits to GCC region residents who are interested in the programmes.

The relative ease of access to Malta from Dubai makes it a destination of particular interest to residents in the GCC region.

The Maltese Individual Investor Programme allows foreign individuals and their families who contribute to the economic development of Malta to be granted citizenship through a certificate of naturalization. The Maltese programme is one of the newest citizenship by investment programmes globally.

WDM International - through its legal services firm, WDM Lex Advisory - and Dr Jonathan De Giovanni, the firm's Partner for the Legal and International Tax service lines, has been approved as an accredited person by Identity Malta, the agency responsible for Malta's Citizenship by Investment Programme (IIP). This allows WDM Lex Advisory to assist individuals in all stages of their application.
