Christian Kaelin

Christian Kaelin is the president of Henley & Partners, a global citizenship and residence advisory firm known for its expertise in passport rankings, including the Henley Passport Index. In a recent discussion, he highlighted the decline of the U.S. passport's global standing, marking its first exit from the top ten rankings in over two decades. Kaelin attributes this shift to changing global dynamics and the impact of strict U.S. immigration policies, emphasizing the importance of openness and cooperation in enhancing national mobility and soft power.
