Tourism is the largest sector of the Bahamian economy. A wealth of beautiful locations throughout the islands, legislation promoting foreign investment and developer-friendly governments, also make The Bahamas a prime location for resort development. In addition, the availability of residency licenses and tax neutral status makes The Bahamas is a popular choice of domicile for discerning ultra-high net worth individuals.
