Real estate investments remain a hedge against currency devaluation

A Real estate development firm, Lifecard International Investment Company, has revealed that many investors are embracing global real estate investment opportunities, as it becomes a hedge against currency devaluation.
   
The company noted that in many developing economies, currency volatility erodes wealth, while global real estate investment opportunities allow investors to preserve and grow capital in stronger, more stable currencies and offering a financial shield in uncertain times.
 
The Chief Executive Officer of the firm, Grace Ibhakhomu, spoke at the launch of its global real estate investment and citizenship advisory hub in Dubai. She said the strategic expansion marks a landmark milestone in the company’s mission to empower high-net-worth individuals, investors with access to premium real estate assets and citizenship-by-investment opportunities across key global markets.
   
Ibhakhomu stressed that the hub will serve as a springboard for investors seeking a pathway to global wealth, mobility, and legacy. She added that global real estate investment was bolstered by the availability of infrastructure and stable economies in countries like Dubai.
  
“Investing in countries with world-class infrastructure, robust legal systems, and stable governance ensures long-term asset value and ease of management. Our mission is to connect clients to well-planned and high-growth cities with proven investor track records,” she said.
 
According to her, investment in global real estate offers investors stronger and predictable returns, pointing out that the global market often offers higher rental yields, consistent capital appreciation and lower risk profiles than many local investments.
 
She said, “Our research-driven approach ensures investors tap into opportunities with attractive and predictable return on investment. Many global cities, including Dubai, offer business-friendly policies, investor protections, transparent regulations, and easy repatriation of profits. This creates a safe, stable, and growth-oriented environment for real estate investors to thrive.
   
“Spreading investments across continents, currencies, and asset classes help minimise exposure to local market shocks, ensuring portfolio balance and security.

“The investors can get quick access to global citizenship and residency through real estate bought via the Lifecard Investment Group hub in Dubai and other prime cities. Many countries now offer permanent residency or second citizenship in exchange for real estate investment.”
 
She also disclosed that the firm provides access to carefully selected properties that meet these criteria, unlocking global mobility and lifestyle options, adding that investors have access to tax-friendly jurisdictions, smart structuring strategies, while the firm helps clients legally minimise tax burdens and enhance after-tax returns.
  
Ibhakhomu said, “Real estate remains one of the most effective tools for safeguarding wealth from inflation. Our global portfolio includes properties in high-demand markets where value naturally appreciates over time.”
