New webinar: a guide on building a legacy with second citizenship from St Kitts and Nevis

By Editor |   20 January 2021   |   10:17 am  

A second nationality has become a vital tool in safeguarding one’s future from instability and unpredictability in the 21st century. For nearly four decades, St Kitts and Nevis has welcomed global individuals and their families to become lifelong citizens after contributing to its economy and passing all due diligence checks. In exchange, successful applicants gain access to various advantages including increased global mobility, alternative business routes and the ability to pass citizenship down for generations to come.

An upcoming webinar hosted by The Guardian Nigeria will give listeners a guide on building a family legacy and broadening business, travel and education opportunities. On January 29th, the Hon. Timothy Harris, Prime Minister of St Kitts and Nevis and Mr Les Khan, CEO of the Citizenship by Investment Unit, will join CS Global Partners’ Micha Emmett in discussing the dual island’s economic citizenship programme.

The webinar, titled “Nigerian Citizens: Build a Platinum Legacy and Broaden Your Horizons by Investing in St Kitts and Nevis”, will take place on January 29th, 2021. Some of the key points of conversation will be:

- How second citizenship is seen as an investment policy
- Most valuable benefits of second citizenship in St Kitts and Nevis
- Business incentives for Nigerians in St Kitts and Nevis and the world
- Investment options under St Kitts and Nevis’ Citizenship by Investment Programme
- Why Nigerians should choose St Kitts and Nevis

During his visit to Nigeria last year, Les Khan told investors that one key reason to obtain St Kitts and Nevis’ citizenship is to gain access to greater business travel. “We are the number one country in terms of passport value within the Caribbean; we are number 27 in the world,” Mr Khan said. “For a small country to be ranked so high in the value of our passport, it gives our citizens the mobility that they need for business.”

As the world’s longest-serving economic citizenship programme, St Kitts and Nevis is commonly known as the ‘Platinum Standard’ of Citizenship by Investment. The most straightforward route to St Kitts and Nevis’ citizenship is through the Sustainable Growth Fund, with a minimum US$150,000 contribution. It was designed to support development on the islands in areas like healthcare, education and tourism.

St Kitts and Nevis is a dual-island nation in the Caribbean. It has ties with CARICOM, and its proximity to South and North America have allowed strong diplomatic relations with several countries. Those who become economic citizens via Citizenship by Investment can now easily travel to 156 destinations. This means that St Kitts and Nevis has one of the strongest passports within the region.
