Russia's richest foreigners

Research «Expat Explorer», conducted by HSBC showed that emerging markets offer expatriates the highest salary and net income. Thus, most of all get the foreigners who came to work in Russia, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, UAE and Singapore, wrote InoPressa.ru with reference to the «Financial Times». In a British newspaper article states that "the richest expatriates boasts Russia, where more than a third of them (36%) earn more than $ 250 million, followed by Singapore (32%) and Bermuda (27%). Overall, worldwide 13% of expatriates earn in excess of $ 250 thousand. Primarily, this is due to the fact that Asia and the Middle East suffer financial turmoil relatively well in comparison with European countries. That's why most people to develop their career select emerging markets, where work is rewarded by higher wages. In this case, good prospects in this regard is in the BRIC countries. While the world 63% of expatriates reported higher earnings in their own country than at home, in Russia there are reports from 82% in China - 75%, India - 70%, while in Brazil - 69% . However, the so-called "long trip" does not always have a positive side. Of course, on the one hand, this wage increase, empowerment and bright career prospects. But, on the other hand, the voluntary renunciation of communication with friends and family, deprivation of infrastructure and opportunities for the usual vacation. Thus, according to a poll conducted a few years ago, a consulting company Cendant Mobility, 58% of expatriates said they were less chat with friends, and their quality of life decreased. As the saying goes, the two sides of one coin.
