This year, Saint Lucia\u2019s Citizenship by Investment Programme climbed a spot and gained the third position.<\/p>\n<p>Saint Lucia\u2019s Citizenship by Investment Unit makes sure that citizenship is given to credible applicants of good standing while their dependants over the age of sixteen are also subject to multi-layered due diligence checks, in order to qualify for alternative citizenship. Saint Lucia asks for detailed information from the applicants to understand the funding source of the investors who want\u202fcitizenship.<\/p>\n<p>On this due diligence aspect, Minister Ernest Hilaire recently addressed concerns and fears related to Saint Lucia\u2019s CBI Programme. He gave assurance that the government of Saint Lucia and its CBI Unit perform a strict and rigid due diligence process. Hilaire explained that the due diligence process is a multi-layered procedure noting, \u201cDue diligence is performed by our Unit on all applicants, this is then followed by another due diligence check by the banks. This is then followed by due diligence checks by international intelligence units who also do on-the-ground assessments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also noted that the Government and Unit have been planning to review the country\u2019s CBI programme, making it more attractive as well as competitive. Minister Hilaire announced that these updates would maintain the country\u2019s rigorous but seamless vetting process.<\/p>\n<p>While the programme is the newest in the region, launched in 2016, the Government has made sure to set the bar very high \u2013 the programme has been regarded as one of the most advanced, secure as well as transparent programmes.<\/p>\n<p>Through the National Economic Fund, this prestigious programme has helped the nation to develop important public infrastructure. The funds from the programme have been directly contributing to advancing the standard of living of Saint Lucians.<\/p>\n<p>Alternative citizenship in the Caribbean nation is emerging as a platform to alleviate and tackle the risk of uncertainty and unpredictability in\u202ffuture. There is no other better plan than investing in building a new home at a place which offers ample opportunities and, most importantly, peace out of the hustle and bustle of big cities.<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ci6.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/UCazqDOYw7MtrvqkFmhtZQ5VHIRSGTQ4X2-n1pgVEF4mtCkyyQm3q8UY7DcJIWusgnPd2AfNUKVNzHf9obqB0ZhgZYR6Z-tt7fRFVAagx_SKV6hk7FpnJQBT0gBwVCTxi6m-e1SdOw6Z5p1MKM2FuQWkqHPL2oB_fg_aRjg_TV1VxhQBNKDe=s0-d-e1-ft#https:\/\/ml.globenewswire.com\/media\/OTM1YzdjNTYtNzFlYi00ZGU2LTk2YTgtNGNiNTA2ZDU5NDM1LTEyNjI4MDg=\/tiny\/Saint-Lucia.png\" \/><\/p>\n<pre>PR Saint Lucia\r\nSaint Lucia\r\n+1 758 458 6050\r\n<a href=\"mailto:mildred.thabane@csglobalpartners.com\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mildred.thabane@<wbr \/>csglobalpartners.com<\/a>\r\n<\/pre>\n<p align=\"center\">GlobeNewswire Distribution ID 8721602<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Castries, Dec. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) \u2014 Saint Lucia has amended the regulations of its Citizenship by Investment Programme to remain increasingly competitive and ensure that the Caribbean country fulfils its mandate of growing demand for its investment products for the ultimate benefit of the people of Saint Lucia.
