ECCB Commends Antigua & Barbuda’s Immigration Policies

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) is applauding Antigua & Barbuda’s growth strategy through carefully managed immigration policies. 

Governor Timothy N.J. Antoine says bringing skilled immigrants into the country is one way to grow the population, which will eventually lead to driving demand so that businesses can flourish.  This, he says, will lead to doubling the prosperity of the Currency Union over the next ten years. 

Antoine made the comments late Tuesday (March 31, 2026) in presenting the ECCB’s Strategic Plan 2026-2031 themed “Collective Action for Shared Prosperity in the ECCU”.
