Having first launched in 1984, their investment program is the oldest program of its kind. Today, it has become a popular choice for investors seeking second citizenship and passport for them and their families. This is because the St. Kitts & Nevis program is one of the most affordable programs right now and includes a string of benefits for investors to enjoy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
