Bangkok, Thailand – The Caribbean nations have led the world in their highly innovative investment options with originating the multi-billion dollar investment immigration industry.

 

When the two-island federation of St. Kitts & Nevis received its independence from the United Kingdom in 1983, the nation launched the first ever citizenship-by-investment program (CBI), in 1984, to attract much-needed foreign investments into the country. Shortly after, neighboring country the Commonwealth of Dominica launched a similar investment option to grant foreigner its passport. It was just a matter of time before other countries in need to diversify, such as Antigua and Barbuda, Grenada, and St. Lucia activated their own CBI programs.

“Investors worldwide – for instance, China, Vietnam, Russia, the Middle East, and increasingly Africa- have become more familiar with the advantages of holding a strong passport,” commented Mr. Bastien Trelcat, Managing Partner Southeast Asia Harvey Law Group, “More Southeast Asian investors are becoming increasingly aware of investment immigration programs. While a cheaper donation investment option is available, most Asians prefer to buy shares in branded -hotel or resort projects to make the most of their investment, as well as the credibility of the project.

The Caribbean programs do not require an investor to fly to the Caribbean for the processing. They also waive interviews, residency requirements, and tax on worldwide income. However, one can insist and make it an excuse to explore the romantic paradise’s quiet beaches and lush mountain forests,” added Mr. Trelcat.
