SAINT LUCIA SECURES US$20 MILLION EXIMBANK LOAN FOR HOUSING INFRASTRUCTURE

The Government of Saint Lucia and the Export-Import Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) have officially finalized a US$20 million loan facility to drive national development. Managed through the Saint Lucia Development Bank (SLDB), the line of credit aims to expand access to affordable housing for low- to middle-income families across the island. Beyond traditional home construction and expansion, the funding supports climate-resilient community infrastructure, including water storage, solar installations, and improved drainage systems.
