The Office of the Honorable Anthony Samora Charles, Parliamentary Representative for the Marigot Constituency, is pleased to advise that Hon. Charles
attended the high-level consultation on the establishment of a Regional Regulatory Body for Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programmes, held on
March 12, 2025, at the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) Agency Office in Roseau.
The consultation, organized by the ECCB and the Interim Regulatory Commission (IRC), featured insightful presentations from key regional stakeholders, including Mr. Timothy N. J. Antoine, Governor of the ECCB. The initiative seeks to
enhance the transparency, accountability, and sustainability of CBI programs across the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU) member states.
Hon. Charles has expressed his strong support for the establishment of this regulatory body, emphasizing that the CBI Program remains a vital economic lifeline for ECCU member states. He believes that a well-regulated framework will further strengthen the integrity of the program, protect it from external threats, and mitigate risks associated with mismanagement and corruption.
"The Citizenship by Investment Program has been instrumental in the economic resilience of our region, funding key national development projects and social initiatives. A unified regulatory body will not only ensure best practices but also preserve international confidence in our CBI programs," Hon. Charles states.
As an advocate for responsible governance and economic sustainability, Hon. Charles
reaffirmed his commitment to policies that foster growth and prosperity for the people of Dominica, particularly the Marigot Constituency. He also called on policymakers across party lines to support this initiative, recognizing its long-term benefits for regional development.
