It’s about money
Paraguay is a very beautiful country. A lot of people emigrate each year to live in Paraguay. Even more people use Paraguay as a backup plan just in case. Others take advantage of the tax code and/or want to invest their money with good returns of about 10% per year.
All these plans have one thing in common: It’s about money.
Cedula is ready, what now?
Once the residence permit is granted and the cedula is made, the next step for many is to open an account with a bank or cooperativa. Since the beginning of 2020, this step has become a lot more complicated. Only very few banks in Paraguay are still willing to grant accounts for emigrants in 2022.
The stock exchange in Asuncion offers many possibilities
Compared to cooperatives, the risk is lower, since companies listed at the Asuncion stock exchange are constantly audited and have a better credit rating. In addition, these securities can also be sold during the term, which is not possible with fixed deposits through banks or cooperatives. In short – the stock market is a very elegant way to move medium to large life savings to Paraguay and secondly to get excellent returns with manageable risk.
