Over the last decade or more Australia, New Zealand, and Canada are amongst countries which have sought to attract skilled entrepreneurial migrants as they contribute to the development of the economies of these nations (Hunter, 2007). Since 1999 New Zealand has issued business migrants with Long Term Business Visas (LTBV) which require them to implement their approved business plans within nine months. After three years they may apply for residency as entrepreneurs. This study seeks to identify which forms of capital entrepreneurial migrants rely on to establish their businesses during the critical start-up stages.
