UK-listed broking and private wealth management firm WH Ireland has launched a Tier 1 Investor Visa service.  

WH Ireland said in a statement that the service will be operated under its discretionary management umbrella by a dedicated team.

Tier 1 visas enable high net worth individuals to get a visa by either investing £1 million ($1.65 million) of their own money in the UK, with 75 per cent of these funds invested in government bonds or loan or share capital in UK registered trading companies.

“I’m delighted to announce the launch of a new service offered by our expert wealth management team. Our tailored investment process and experience in the UK financial markets provide us with an excellent opportunity to provide a high quality service to Tier 1 Investor Visa applicants,” said Richard Killingbeck, chief executive of WH Ireland Group.
