Our Economy

CARICOM Member States nationals can transfer money to another member country through bank notes, electronic transfers, etc. without having to obtain prior authorisation. No new restriction can be added and the restrictions that already exist will be revised to facilitate the mandate the CSME.

The equal right to purchase shares in any company in any Member State and the right to remove your capital from one Member State to another is also a feature of the integration process.

The free movement of capital allows firms to have access to a wider market for raising needed capital at competitive rates, thus allowing for the productive sectors to become more competitive both regionally and internationally. Additionally, investors can diversify portfolios regionally and share the best performing registered firms across the Region. The movement of capital across the Region results in an increased investment opportunities.

Envisaged under the CSME too is the development of a regional capital market which would facilitate the free movement of capital. This will increase the attractiveness of the Region as an area for the investment both by regional and non-regional investors.

Removal of restrictions will encourage intra-regional investments in both real and financial assets by reducing risk and uncertainty over the ownership of real property, thus aiding in the development of the regional stock exchange.
