Prime Minister Hon. Dr. Terrance Drew and colleagues attended the Citizenship by Investment “Evolution” event in Dubai
Today my colleagues and I attended the Citizenship by Investment “Evolution” event in Dubai where I had the privilege of addressing the attendees.
In this ever-changing and unpredictable world, it is imperative that the Government of St Kitts and Nevis and its Citizenship by Investment Programme continue to adapt to the needs of our people and to attract the right kind of international investment necessary to uplift our country.
While we have always been the benchmark of the global investor immigration industry, we understand that in order to remain as one of the most sought-after economic citizenship programmes in the world, we need to continue to evolve and forge a path for ourselves that is sustainable in the long term.
Since taking office in August this year, we have interrogated our Citizenship by Investment programme as it currently stands and have decided to update certain aspects of it to ensure that it continues to meet the needs of an intelligent investment minded person looking for an enriching base for their families and businesses.
Not only that, but the programme must continue to uplift the Kittitian and Nevisian society through beneficial investment options that bring tangible value.
We are strengthening our legislative and administrative structures to ensure that CBI-funded developments are actually built by embracing serious and innovative developers.
We need to ensure that our treasured Citizenship by Investment Programme is mutually beneficial for all stakeholders, from the people of St Kitts and Nevis, the investors themselves, to the developers, to the local service providers and the international marketing agents.
