How do you convince governments to relax work permit regulations for expatriate partners?
Our research shows that countries that enable partners to work are attractive destinations for highly skilled employees. This presents a real opportunity for countries to create an attractive climate for international talent and investment. At the same time, partners themselves are often highly educated. If they are allowed to work, they contribute their own skills and revenue from taxes and expenditure to the host country economy.
