OVERVIEW
The Grenada Citizenship by Investment Committee (CBIC) is the Government body responsible for overseeing the processing of applications for citizenship by investment or by permanent residence. The CBIC assesses each application in accordance with the Grenada Citizenship by Investment Act, 2013. It then makes recommendations to the Minister, who has the final say on whether to approve, deny, or delay the granting of Grenadian citizenship.
The CBIC comprises of seven persons, all of whom answer to the Minister.
One of these individuals leads the CBIC as committee chairman.
This diverse group of professionals possesses a wealth of experience in areas such as law, finance, trade, and administration – allowing the CBIC to make informed decisions on citizenship matters.
The Grenada Citizenship by Investment Programme was designed to attract foreign direct investment into our nation, whilst also protecting the value of Grenadian citizenship and its reputation across the globe. At the Citizenship by Investment Committee we thoroughly review all applications, ensuring that the Citizenship by Investment Programme is kept exclusive to investors who will uphold the integrity, prestige, and honour of Grenadian citizenship, while also encouraging innovation, industry, and private enterprise on our wonderful country.
Grenada’s Citizenship by Investment Programme has contributed significantly to the growth of our nation’s economy, and we expect it will continue to do so for many years to come. The inward investment it promotes has led to the creation of sustainable long-term employment, specialist training, and the general broadening of skills for numerous Grenadians. We aim to build a flourishing private investment market, and to watch the nation’s economy grow even more. Certainly, with its untouched nature, safe environment, and committed local workforce, Grenada is the ideal destination for individuals wishing to invest in tourism and other innovative ventures.
