In 2023, the Citizenship/Residency by Investment landscape continues to thrive, with several programs standing out for their unique benefits and opportunities. Based on our experiences we present you the most popular programs for this year in Caribbean and LatAm region.
Antigua and Barbuda: Diverse investment opportunities
Antigua and Barbuda’s Citizenship by Investment program offers multiple routes for investors. These include a donation to the National Development Fund, investment in approved real estate projects, and contribution to the University of West Indies (UWI) Fund. The UWI Fund option is particularly beneficial for larger families, as it provides one member with a one-year scholarship at the university. On the other hand, Antigua and Barbuda’s government approved real estate project, Hodges Bay, we talked about a lot this year, is one of the most stellar real estate programs this year. The real estate option provides a tangible investment with a guaranteed buyback after five years of holding period. Both options offer the benefits of second citizenship, appealing to a wide range of clients looking for both personal and financial growth.
St. Lucia: versatile and attractive investment choices
St. Lucia’s Citizenship by Investment program presents a variety of investment routes: a contribution to the National Economic Fund, Real Estate Investment, National Action Bond, and Enterprise projects. Among these, the National Action Bond option distinguishes itself with a unique feature. Apart from possibility of recouping initial investment after a holding period, this route allows for the inclusion of any number of family members within the same application without additional investment. This makes it an especially attractive choice for larger families or those looking to secure citizenship for multiple members under a single investment, offering a distinct advantage in the realm of Caribbean citizenship by investment programs.
