Investor-Friendly Policies Set To Continue In Bahamas

  • According to Fitch, in 2019, Bahamian Prime Minister Hubert Minnis will continue to push forward economic liberalization policies aimed at boosting investment.

 

  • A strong Free National Movement (FNM) majority in the legislature will support Minnis's pro-business policy agenda which includes infrastructure development, boosting the tourism sector and energy sector reform.

 

  • Potential social backlash to fiscal consolidation and the volatility of political support will present the primary political risks heading towards the 2022 vote.
