Economy
Dominica is a small, lower-middle-income eastern Caribbean island — the 'Nature Isle' — whose economy depends on agriculture, ecotourism, and citizenship-by-investment revenue, and which is acutely vulnerable to hurricanes.
Devastated by Hurricane Maria in 2017, Dominica has pledged to become the world's first climate-resilient nation, while relying on bananas, tourism, and passport sales.
The economy rests on agriculture (bananas have historically been the mainstay), ecotourism built on rainforests and hot springs, and a citizenship-by-investment program.
