The Model

How It Works

A simple, transparent 4-step process to become a registered equity partner in an operational Colombian business.

We Identify the Business

Maloof & Linero sources operational Colombian businesses where the owner seeks liquidity or an exit. Every deal is vetted for financials, legal standing and growth potential.

We Structure the SAS

We form a Colombian SAS corporation with up to 20 foreign investors. Each investor holds a registered equity stake (~25% minimum), formally recorded with the Colombian Chamber of Commerce.

You Get Your Partner Visa

Your registered equity stake qualifies you for the Colombia Socio/Propietario (Partner) Visa. Maloof & Linero handles the entire visa application — no extra work on your end.

You Earn Passive Returns

Each deal SAS appoints a designated operator under a formal management agreement, overseen by Maloof & Linero Advisory as Representante Legal. You receive your proportional share of annual profits — projected at 20–25% on your invested capital — without any day-to-day involvement.

Why Colombia

The Case for Colombian Investment

Colombia is one of Latin America's fastest-growing economies — with a booming hospitality sector, a favorable exchange rate, and strong demand from a rapidly expanding expat and tourist market.

20–25%

Exceptional Returns

Colombia's hospitality and food & beverage sector consistently outperforms Western benchmarks. Operational businesses in tourist-heavy areas generate strong, predictable cash flows.

Partner Visa

Legal Residency Access

Your $50,000+ investment qualifies you for the Colombia Socio/Propietario Visa — a direct path to legal residency and, after 5 years, permanent residency status.

$50K

Low Minimum Entry

Access institutional-quality investment returns at a fraction of the capital required in the US or Europe. $50,000 USD buys a ~25% stake in an operational business with proven revenue.

100%

Legally Structured

Every investment is structured as an independent SAS corporation — legally separated from both Maloof & Linero Advisory and other deals. Registered with the Chamber of Commerce and Central Bank. Your equity is fully protected under Colombian corporate law.

Passive

Zero Day-to-Day Involvement

Each investment SAS has a designated operator under a formal management contract. Maloof & Linero Advisory oversees governance and compliance. You receive returns without any operational responsibilities.

Growing

Booming Tourism Market

Colombia welcomed record-breaking tourist arrivals in 2024 and 2025. The hospitality sector — particularly in Cartagena and Medellín — is experiencing unprecedented demand growth.

Common Questions

Investor FAQ

No. The entire investment structuring process can be completed remotely via power of attorney. You will need to travel to Colombia at some point to collect your visa stamp and open your bank account, but Maloof & Linero coordinates the timing to minimize required trips.

The Socio/Propietario Visa is a Colombian residency visa granted to registered owners of Colombian corporations. It allows you to live in Colombia legally, renews every 3 years, and after 5 cumulative years qualifies you for permanent residency. Your spouse and dependent children can be included as beneficiaries.

Returns are distributed proportionally to each investor's equity stake, typically on a quarterly or annual basis depending on the business's cash flow cycle. The exact distribution schedule is formalized in the SAS shareholder agreement signed at closing. Maloof & Linero Advisory serves as Representante Legal of the deal SAS, ensuring proper governance and transparent reporting to all investors.

All investments carry risk. Business performance can be affected by market conditions, tourism fluctuations, operational challenges and currency movements. Projected returns are based on current financials and management projections — they are not guaranteed. Each deal SAS is legally independent — meaning the performance of one deal does not affect your stake in another. We strongly recommend reviewing the full information memorandum and consulting your own financial advisor before investing.

Yes. As a registered SAS shareholder, you can transfer or sell your equity stake subject to the terms of the shareholder agreement. Maloof & Linero can assist in finding a buyer for your stake if you wish to exit. Specific exit terms are outlined in the deal documentation.

The 5% fee covers: business due diligence and valuation, SAS corporation formation and registration, shareholder agreement drafting, Central Bank (Banco de la República) foreign investment registration, and deal coordination. Visa and legal services are billed separately per investor at standard advisory rates. Maloof & Linero Advisory acts as Representante Legal of each deal SAS, providing ongoing governance and investor reporting.
