Last update: 3 hours ago

Sanctions & Finance: The US Treasury imposed fresh Iran-related sanctions on Ali Ansari, a Dubai-based financier tied to Mojtaba Khamenei and the IRGC, and also targeted exchange houses and front firms linked to currency flows—one of them described as connected to Saint Kitts and Nevis. Regional CBI Pressure: Eastern Caribbean leaders met in Dominica and agreed on a coordinated response to EU concerns over Citizenship by Investment, including a high-level mission to Brussels; the EU has urged phase-outs tied to a revised visa suspension mechanism.

ECCB Currency Update: The ECCB unveiled redesigned EC dollar banknotes featuring national heroes and regional icons—St. Kitts and Nevis’ Sir Robert Llewellyn Bradshaw appears on the EC$50 note. Tourism & Ports: St. Kitts’ tourism minister pushed private-sector participation in the homeporting push as Port Zante’s new cruise terminal breaks ground, with homeporting targeted for November 2027. Business News: C&W Business rebranded to Liberty Business in St. Kitts and Nevis, positioning the company as a digital adviser and technology partner for enterprise growth. Trade Capacity Building: The Ministry of International Trade and OECS hosted a four-day seminar to strengthen the services sector and trade officials’ negotiating capacity. Regional Humanitarian Aid: CARICOM states shipped 88 containers of relief supplies to earthquake-hit Venezuela, including support from St. Kitts and Nevis.
