Forgive me if this has already been addressed, in which case I’d appreciate any direction toward the discussion(s): How are GV investors getting advice about moving money over to appropriate banks and investment accounts? Any international banks and/or investment advisors which would be roughly equivalent to, for example, Vanguard, in the U.S.?  
Thanks in advance.

You can use FX Brokers such as [Wise](https://nomadgate.com/go/wise) or any banks such as Citibank, Chase or HSBC to directly exchange USD from Vanguard accounts and transfer to banks in Portugal.

I wont be moving my money to Portugal. A wealth tax probably isn’t unlikely given the state of politics there, and why make it any easier for them!

With regards to optimizing the exchange rate on tranfers to PT, I would recommend HSBC Global Money.  
Not sure about some other aspects of the ‘moving money’ question…
