"We are beyond busy at the moment," Judi Galst, who manages Global citizen firm Henley & Partners' New York office, told Business Insider the day after the election. "The phones and online inquiries are constant since this morning."
Reaz Jafri, the CEO of citizenship consulting firm Dasein, said in addition to wanting an option B, clients are wanting to move their assets offshore. He said people are concerned about Trump raising tariffs, and how that will impact the economy and the US dollar.
"It's not to evade taxes or hide their money it's just to keep it out of the reach of the US government," Jafri said, adding that clients want to ensure their wealth isn't held solely in US banks if restrictions are put in place.
Jafri also said the election has raised concerns within the LGBTQ+ community. Since Trump's reelection, Jafri said he's had three same-sex couples reach out to him because of worries about what will happen with same-sex marriage.
