UAE financial advisory firm, Arton Capital, has called for a “Global Citizen Tax” to be implemented to fund the current refugee crisis. They have called on the European Union to institute a levy on foreign investors as part of their residence and citizenship programs. The firm says the proposed tax could raise in excess of AED 1 billion within 18 months, and up to AED 4 billion in the next five years. Armand Arton, CEO of Arton Capital, shares if investors would be happy with this additional tax.
