1 GLOBAL ECONOMIC CITIZENSHIP IN THE CARIBBEAN Copyright Delaney Partners
2 What is Economic Citizenship? Economic Citizenship is where a person invests into another country. As a result of the investment, such person is able to acquire the citizenship of the country where the investment is made. Copyright Delaney Partners
3 Popular Reasons for the demand for Economic Citizenship To access business and other opportunities with less travel restrictions post 9/11 attacks. The desire to enjoy full civil rights, buying property and the right to work. Estate and Tax Planning. Survival for political or national refugees from countries impacted by civil war, natural disasters, famines etc. Copyright Delaney Partners
4 Global Economic Citizenship Programs (ECPs) & Economic Residency Programs (ERPs) Some of the popular ECPs or ERPs are outlined in the chart below which was published in an IMF Working Paper: Copyright Delaney Partners
5 Economic Citizenship in The Bahamas? The Bahamas has an ERP instead of an ECP. How does the ERP work? Ideal minimum investment is $1,500, Satisfy due diligence procedures. Is ERP a path to citizenship? Despite provisions in The Bahamas Nationality Act 1973, obtaining Bahamian citizenship otherwise by descent is a long and challenging process. Copyright Delaney Partners
6 Caribbean Countries with ECPs Copyright Delaney Partners

10 Grenada There are two options available for obtaining Economic Citizenship: Option 1: A non-refundable donation to the country s Island Transformation Fund in the amount of US$200,000. This option has two steps as it involves obtaining a permanent residency status first and then applying for naturalization second. However, according to Grenada s Government website this option is not ready to receive applications. Option 2: A real estate investment in one of the approved projects in the amount of $350, Please note that the real estate cannot be re-sold until four years after the date of purchase. The investment does not include government processing fees, due diligence fees and other associated costs which distinguishes this country s ECP from that of its Caribbean competitors.
