How the Index Works
The Movingto Verified Fund Index tracks Portugal Golden Visa investment funds listed on Movingto. Funds included as "Verified" have passed an 8-point legal review conducted by licensed Portuguese lawyers registered with the Ordem dos Advogados.
Verification assesses legal readiness, transparency, and documentation standards. It checks regulatory registration, custodian and auditor appointments, fee accuracy against official prospectuses, and fund-route evidence consistency. Verification does not assess investment performance or expected returns.
This index is designed to improve clarity around fund verification and documentation standards. It is not a performance ranking and should not be treated as investment advice.

How to Compare Verified Golden Visa Funds
When evaluating verified funds, focus on five key dimensions: strategy type (private equity, venture capital, credit, or digital assets), fee structure (management fee plus performance fee), lock-up period (how long your capital is committed), minimum investment, and custodian quality (the institution holding your assets).
Credit and fixed-income funds are often perceived as lower volatility than equity strategies, while private equity and venture capital target higher returns over longer lock-ups; any target is set by the fund, is not a forecast, and capital is at risk. Digital asset funds carry the highest volatility and require extra custody, valuation, and route-evidence checks; read the crypto funds eligibility guide before relying on any Bitcoin or digital-asset exposure.
Use our side-by-side comparison tool to evaluate specific funds, or try the Fund Finder to filter the verified directory based on your selections.
What Verification Does and Does Not Mean
Verification checks a fund's regulatory status, stated fee structure, custodian and auditor relationships, and fund-route evidence as of the verification date. It is based on public regulatory records and official fund documentation reviewed by our legal team.
Verification does not constitute investment advice, endorse past or future fund performance, or guarantee that a specific investment will support a Portuguese Golden Visa application in your individual case. Your Portuguese immigration lawyer should confirm the route evidence for your specific situation.
If a fund's regulatory status changes or if verification cannot be completed during a scheduled review, the fund is removed from this page and its verified badge is revoked across the platform. Fund managers are notified and may reapply once any issues are resolved.
Frequently Asked Questions About Verified Funds
Common questions about our fund verification process, eligibility, and what it means for your investment.
A verified fund has passed an independent 8-point legal review conducted by licensed Portuguese lawyers. This review checks CMVM/RGA evidence, custodian and auditor relationships, fee accuracy against fund prospectuses, management company authorisation, and fund-route evidence consistency. Verification is based on public regulatory records and official fund documentation — not manager-submitted information alone.
The number of verified funds changes as new funds complete our review process and existing funds are re-verified. The current count is displayed at the top of this page. Not all funds listed on Movingto Funds have completed verification — only those shown on this page carry the verified badge.
Fund verification is conducted by David Simões Fitas, a licensed Portuguese lawyer registered with the Ordem dos Advogados (bar licence 67185P). David specialises in Golden Visa fund investments, CMVM-regulated fund due diligence, and legal review of investor documentation.
Minimum investments for verified funds typically range from EUR 100,000 to EUR 500,000. The exact minimum depends on the fund structure and strategy. The Portuguese Golden Visa fund route requires a minimum route investment of EUR 500,000, though some funds accept lower minimums for investors combining multiple fund-route investments. Each fund's minimum is listed on this page and on its individual profile.
Some verified funds accept US citizens and residents, but US-person onboarding depends on each fund's FATCA process, PFIC classification, and internal policies. Funds that report accepting US persons are labelled accordingly on their profile pages; this is self-reported by the fund and not verified by Movingto. US investors should consult both a Portuguese immigration lawyer and a US tax advisor before investing.
If a fund's regulatory status changes, or if verification cannot be completed during a scheduled review, the fund is removed from this page and its verified badge is revoked across the platform. Fund managers are notified and can reapply for verification once any issues are resolved. This ensures the verified list reflects current regulatory standing, not historical status.
Unverified funds are listed based on publicly available information and manager submissions. Verified funds have undergone an additional independent legal review against public regulatory records, fund prospectuses, and custodian/auditor documentation. Verification does not constitute investment advice, AIMA certification, or a return guarantee — it checks the fund's stated regulatory and structural details as of the verification date.
Every verified fund undergoes a mandatory re-attestation every six months. During re-verification, the reviewing lawyer checks for changes in CMVM registration status, custodian or auditor appointments, fee schedules, and fund structure. If a fund fails re-attestation — or if the manager does not provide updated documentation within the review window — the verified badge is revoked immediately and the fund is removed from this page until issues are resolved.
The reviewing lawyer requires the fund's official prospectus (regulamento de gestão), the Key Investor Information Document (KIID) or equivalent, subscription documentation, and the fund's CMVM registration record. These are cross-referenced against the public CMVM register, custodian confirmation letters, and auditor appointment records. The review is based on official documentation — not marketing materials or manager-submitted summaries.
