Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - GreenBank Capital Inc. (CSE: GBC and OTCMKTS: GRNBF and FRA; 2TL) ("GreenBank or the Company") announces that it has established Expatriate Assistance Services Inc (“EASI”) as a 100% subsidiary. EASI will provide a broad range of services to expatriates seeking to settle in Canada.  Fee based services provided by EASI will include employment opportunities, immigration and visa procedures, housing assistance, education opportunities, banking facilities, and professional services.

The process of relocation for expatriates is stressful, time consuming, and expensive, and limited capabilities are available to assist in navigating the multiple issues that require resolution. EASI will offer specialist expertise to expatriates to smooth the transition to Canada for an initial fixed fee for 90 day support services. Thereafter, clients can select from a menu of support services on an “as needed” basis.  Concierge services will include home-country assistance with tax issues, bill payments, property management, and cross-border estate planning. In jurisdictions outside Canada, EASI will enter into arrangements with local professionals to ensure the quality of home-country services. 

In May 2018 the Conference Board of Canada called for an increase in the rate of Canadian immigration to an annual rate of 415,000 from the current rate of 310,000, primarily due to the fact that immigration accounts for most of the labour growth and about 30% of GDP growth. Over 40% of Canadian immigrants relocate to the Toronto area, where EASI is based. Canadian government policies are likely to continue encouraging immigration for the foreseeable future.

“I believe there is a substantial need for expatriate assistance as Canada continues to absorb a substantial number of immigrants, and the services offered by Expatriate Assistance Services will be well received by the expatriate community” said Gaurav Singh, director of EASI and GreenBank.
