Striving for Gold<br />

The TCI’s “gold standard” continues to attract investors.<br />

By Kathy Borsuk<br />

Although <strong>the</strong> Turks & Caicos <strong>Islands</strong> are not able to participate in <strong>the</strong> Olympics, <strong>the</strong> country has earned<br />

a gold medal for its superb handling <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> COVID-19 pandemic. It has also broken records in real estate<br />

sales since <strong>the</strong> border’s reopening a little over a year ago. Both efforts go hand in hand—because <strong>the</strong> TCI<br />

is seen as a beautiful, healthy, peaceful place to live, it is attracting people from around <strong>the</strong> world who<br />

are looking for a safe haven in which to retire or have a second home.<br />
