Meet Jason Swan.
One of the most experienced Portugal Golden Visa specialists, ranked No. 1 Financial Adviser in Europe four years running, working privately with a select number of high-net-worth individuals and families.
An independent expert, on your side.
Jason Swan is an independent Golden Visa specialist, ranked No. 1 Financial Adviser in Europe four consecutive years running. He built JS Privé as a deliberately personal service for one reason: high-net-worth families making a life-changing move deserve a single, expert point of contact, not a call centre and not a handoff.
Over the last few years Jason has guided more than 320 Golden Visa applications and placed 700+ individuals from over 100 nationalities, with a 99% success rate. His focus is the Portugal Golden Visa, though he guides clients across a select range of residency and citizenship routes when they fit a client better.
The way he works is deliberately simple. Jason guides you personally from the first conversation to approval, provides the key facts and supporting information you need to make confident decisions, and introduces you to an established network of regulated fund, tax and legal partners who carry out the in-country work. He works in association with Holborn Assets.
A fully qualified international financial planner (QFA, CeMAP) with over 15 years’ experience, Jason is known for being clear, direct and genuinely on his clients’ side, the sort of adviser who tells you what won’t work as readily as what will. Online, you may know him as The Golden Visa Guy, the name behind his YouTube channel and podcast appearances.
The numbers behind the name.
Ranked No. 1 Financial Adviser in Europe for four consecutive years (2022, 2023, 2024, 2025), and No. 1 Citizenship by Investment Adviser in three of the last four (2022, 2023, 2025), both within a global network of approximately 300 advisers. Also a gala award winner, including Emerging Talent of the Year and Excellence in Citizenship Services. Nominated Best Emerging Talent at the 2025 International Investment Awards.
