Interview With John Rutherford For CEO Insight

Q: How would you summarise Invest Turks and Caicos' raison d'être, its ambitions, and the road map to realising these goals?

A: Invest Turks and Caicos was created in 2015 to act as the lead organisation for attracting and facilitating foreign investment to the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI); to support the growth of local business; and to manage the country's Investor Permanent Residency programme.  Internationally, we promote the islands in target markets to companies in industry sectors who we believe can secure a strong return on investment by having a presence here; and bring benefits to the islands through economic activity and job creation.  We provide bespoke information to support the company's business plan; and if a company or individual expresses interest in locating here, we work with them throughout the investment process.
