India in Top 10 Places for Expats In Terms Of Family Aspects


NEW DELHI: India features among the top ten destinations for expats in terms of ‘family aspects of living’ in the adopted country and 58 per cent of them believe the country is getting better as a place to live and work, says an HSBC survey.

In the HSBC ‘Expat Explorer 2015′ survey, India ranked 10th on the family league table, which ranks each country using a score that summarises the expats’ views concerning the family aspects of living in the adopted country.

“The close-knit family culture in India is very dominant and expats find that countries with such strong family values bring them closer to their own families,” HSBC India Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management S Ramakrishnan said.

Ramakrishnan further said that “in addition to providing a good environment for children to grow up in, a fulfilling work life and rich culture are some of the other reasons why 58 per cent of expats believe that India is getting better as a place to live and work”.

Meanwhile, Singapore emerged as the best place overall for expats to enjoy an excellent quality of life, financial wellbeing and improved career prospects.
