    Confidence overseas investors will take up opportunities provided by visa changes

    Confidence overseas investors will take up opportunities provided by visa changes


    The Active Investment Plus visas system is being replaced with two simplified categories - Growth, which requires at least five million dollars invested, and Balanced which requires 10.
