Even though obtaining citizenship in St. Lucia does not require physical presence in the country or any specific amount of time spent living there, the country offers a high standard of living.

St. Lucia boasts a low crime rate and provides access to modern healthcare and infrastructure. Additionally, the country offers a variety of high-end dining options to satisfy its residents' tastes. St. Lucia is known for its iconic Piton mountains, which have been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The island also features a drive-in volcano, lush rainforests, national parks, botanical gardens, and beautiful beaches.

St. Lucia offers a tropical climate and minimal traffic, making it an attractive destination. St. Lucia has been successful in attracting foreign businesses and investments, particularly in the offshore banking and tourism sectors, which are the primary sources of revenue for the island. It is important to thoroughly examine a country's economy before making an investment, especially if you are expecting to receive a return on your investment rather than making a donation.

St. Lucia has a relatively small population of around 200,000 and a GDP of $2 billion, and its economy is performing well in comparison to other countries in the region. The economy of the country is heavily dependent on a limited number of industries, such as banana production and tourism.

Saint Lucia was ideally positioned to launch its citizenship by investment program because it could draw from the knowledge of neighbouring nations that had long-running, similar programs and carefully pick out the most useful components to incorporate in its own.
