Opportunities
Reduced number of Lawyers admitted simultaneously in Luxembourg and Portugal;
None of the big and middle sized law firms as a Portuguese Desk or dedicated department;
Limited know how of the Portuguese legal system and legal formal technical language;
Competitors understanding PT mainly work in Litigation not in “Droit des Affairs”.
Opportunities
Interesting Real Estate investment opportunities owned by Banks and Developers;
Portugal as market player in IT; Portuguese SME´s exporting on a global basis; Golden Visa Permit for Non-EU Investors; Non-Habitual Tax Regime for EU citizens
wishing to live in Portugal.
Risks
New idea to be implemented; Fear of taking the challenge and risk to
explore this market niche; Negative image due to Portuguese Debt Crisis; Some Portuguese speaking countries are still
seen as exotic and unconventional (Brazil and Angola) under Luxembourg patterns;
Limited Market Research
