Change in Value of Investment

The entrant is not required to top up the value of his investment in either asset class should the value of his total investment under the Scheme fall below the requisite minimum level of HK$6.5 million. He is also not allowed to withdraw any capital gain from his investment if its market value rises above the requisite level. Rental income from the qualifying property and cash dividend income and interest income derived from permissible financial assets can be retained by the entrant and need not be ring-fenced under the Scheme. The entrant is free to switch his investments from one permissible asset class to another (e.g. from real estate to financial assets or vice versa) provided that the entire proceeds from the sale of the initial assets are reinvested. He should keep a record of every change to his investment portfolio for the purpose of applying for extension of stay in Hong Kong.
