Core offering

Global Information Consulting Group (GICG) is an investment immigration advisory firm that guides High Net Worth Individuals through citizenship-by-investment and residency-by-investment programs. The company provides eligibility assessment, document preparation, application submission via government-approved licensed agents, and post-approval compliance support across Caribbean, European, Turkish, and Nauruan jurisdictions, complemented by government advisory services for jurisdictions designing investment migration programs.

Product overview

Global Information Consulting Group (GICG) offers a portfolio of citizenship and residency by investment advisory services, operating as a consultancy firm rather than a software technology company. The core offerings include Citizenship by Investment Programs across Caribbean nations (Antigua & Barbuda, Dominica, Grenada, Saint Kitts & Nevis, Saint Lucia), Turkey, and Nauru; Residency by Investment Programs in European countries (Malta, Portugal, Cyprus, Hungary, Greece); and Government Advisory Services for countries establishing investment migration programs. The Malta Permanent Residence Programme (MPRP) is a flagship product offering permanent EU residency through a structured investment route combining real estate, government contributions, and charitable donations. The Global Assessment Tool provides an online eligibility screening service to help clients identify suitable programs.

Direct peers

• Arton Capital: Arton Capital is a boutique investment migration consultancy headquartered in Canada that, like GICG, advises HNW clients on citizenship- and residency-by-investment programs across multiple jurisdictions. Comparable scope, customer base, and multi-program advisory model.
• Henley & Partners: Henley & Partners is the largest global investment migration advisory firm, directly competing with GICG across the same citizenship-by-investment (Caribbean) and residency-by-investment (Malta, Portugal, Greece, etc.) programs. Both firms target HNWIs and operate through licensed agents under government programs like the Malta MPRP, making them the most directly comparable peer.
• Kochen Holding: Kochen Holding is a smaller multi-jurisdictional CBI/RBI advisory firm operating across the Caribbean and European residency programs, comparable to GICG in product breadth and target customer profile.
• CS Global Partners: CS Global Partners is a London-based investment migration firm specializing in Caribbean citizenship-by-investment and European residency programs, directly overlapping with GICG's core product portfolio and HNW client segment.

Others

• Investment Migration Council: The IMC is the industry's trade association and not-for-profit body; it is not a commercial peer but functions as the industry self-regulator and information hub that GICG, as a licensed member, participates in. Including it as an ecosystem reference point given GICG's regulated status under such bodies.

Emerging players

• Global Citizen Solutions: Global Citizen Solutions is a relatively newer digital-first investment migration advisory firm targeting HNWIs with content-led, self-serve style acquisition — offering comparable product (Golden Visas, Caribbean CBI, Portugal/Malta residency) to GICG with a more technology-driven funnel.
• Latitude Consultancy: Latitude is a UK-headquartered investment migration advisory covering Caribbean CBI and European residency programs (Portugal, Malta, Greece) — directly comparable in product mix and HNW customer focus to GICG, though operating at smaller scale and newer vintage.

Regional players

• Domicile Corporate Services: Domicile is a Malta-based corporate services and residency advisory firm that, like GICG, leverages Malta as its hub for European residency-by-investment advisory, with overlapping geography and program expertise (MPRP and similar).

Broad incumbents

• Y-Axis (Y-Axis Overseas Careers): Y-Axis is a large global immigration consultancy headquartered in India with mass-market visa, work-permit, and residency services plus citizenship-by-investment offerings. While much broader than GICG and serving a broader client base, it overlaps in the CBI/RBI advisory products GICG offers.
