Government Reaffirms Commitment to Budget Boost Wallet Programme Amid Inflation Challenges
The Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis is highlighting the critical role of the Budget Boost Wallet (BBW) programme in mitigating the impact of rising inflation on citizens, while addressing recent reports of misuse. Since its inception in January 2025, the BBW initiative has delivered vital financial support to approximately 23,000 households monthly, injecting an average of EC$5.6 million per month into the economy to ensure access to essentials such as groceries and utilities. This effort reflects the St. Kitts-Nevis Labour Party Administration’s strong commitment to safeguarding vulnerable populations during a period of global economic uncertainty.
