Initiatives

Citizen by Investment Unit

While the Citizenship by Investment programme has been present in our country for almost four (4) decades, it is the first time that a Citizenship by Investment COVID-19 Relief Payment or Dividend from the profits generated from this programme is being paid to the citizens and residents of St.Kitts and Nevis.

In fact, it is the first time in the Caribbean that ordinary citizens and residents are being paid a dividend on any state asset. This makes it a significant gesture by your caring government, recognizing that citizens and residents contribute greatly to the development of any asset of St. Kitts and Nevis.

The St. Kitts-Nevis Labour Party was the only political entity in the recently held political campaign to have the decency of understanding that it is the citizens and residents that own the state asset and it was the only political party to offer a dividend as part of its pledge once it got into office.

The offer was made and the reality is delivered.
