“We started in Saskatchewan in 1989 with Canadian work permits. From there we built into Portugal, then Greece, and most recently Panama, where we are the only group operating in formal partnership with the government. Every move had to serve the investor and the host country in equal measure.”Jerome (Jerry) MorganFounder, President & CEO
In Jerry's words.
On how Mercan evolved, how it operates, and how it designs an investment.

“Every project we develop is designed from the investor's perspective first. The residency outcome is the destination, but the underlying asset has to make sense on its own merits — that is the only way a portfolio survives the next decade.”Jerome (Jerry) MorganFounder, President & CEO
