The Solution · Regulated Fund · Family Covered
One regulated European fund. A permanent European future for your whole family.
A single subscription in a CMVM-regulated fund gives you — and the people you love — European residency, public healthcare, elite education and Schengen mobility. No real estate to buy. No tenants to manage. Tap each card to expand.
✨ Your family receives this card
* Card design is illustrative. Actual card is issued by AIMA — Portugal's immigration authority.
One Planet Fund is structured for family applications. Timeline, documentation and eligibility requirements are confirmed during the consultation stage.
Path to European Residency
Your Path to European Residency — 5 Clear Steps
A well-established, legally sound process. Our partners guide you every step of the way.
Minimum subscription: €100,000. In a private consultation we confirm your eligibility, accredited-investor status and which family members are included.
Week 1
Golden Visa requires a minimum of €500,000 in qualifying Portuguese funds. The remaining balance can be diversified across other Plural-managed investments.
Our team guides you through the account opening process at Plural — Gestora de Ativos. This account is used for your fund subscription and is required for the residency application.
1–2
Funds are transferred and you subscribe to One Planet Fund units — managed by Plural Gestora de Ativos and regulated by the CMVM. Subscription documents are signed with legal-partner assistance.
2–4
Our partner lawyers handle the full submission to AIMA (Portugal's immigration authority) — including the biometrics appointment and follow-up — for you and your eligible family members.
3–6
AIMA issues your provisional residency card, granting the right to live, work and travel across the Schengen Area.
12–18
Provisional card → Year 5: permanent residency → Year 10: option to apply for citizenship. Processing and eligibility are subject to Portuguese immigration law and AIMA approval.

The American Investor's Dilemma
Your wealth is in USD. Your passport ties you to one jurisdiction.
Single-Jurisdiction Risk
Your family's mobility, banking and tax exposure depend on one country. One election cycle, one policy shift, can change everything.
100% USD Concentration
Most US portfolios hold zero EUR-denominated, asset-backed exposure. No real hedge against dollar weakness or domestic inflation.
No Real Plan B
Traditional residency programs take 5–10 years. The Portuguese real-estate Golden Visa closed in 2023 — qualified funds are now the only compliant path.
Pension Compatible
SDIRA & 401(k) eligible — invest your American retirement savings into One Planet Fund with no taxable event.
SDIRA investment may have tax implications. Consult your tax advisor and custodian before investing.
