Roadmap For Financial Services Industry

The Bahamas has the opportunity to position itself as the Wealth Capital of The Americas. This is not an empty marketing slogan provided we, government and industry stakeholders, are prepared to act in concert to achieve this goal. We need to put in place a roadmap that will result in an 'open architecture' platform that will send a definitive message to the international marketplace that The Bahamas is the international financial centre jurisdiction of choice in the Americas. International institutions, intermediaries and their clients have many options and the challenge for us is to make them favourably disposed towards using The Bahamas as a base or domicile for their financial operations or structures.
