| Özet: | St. Lucia faces structural challenges that need to be addressed to raise growth durably and reduce poverty. Implementation of planned tax reforms is important to achieve fiscal sustainability. The government's plans to accelerate tourism-related public investment carry significant risks.

St. Lucia is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world. Economic and social statistics need to be improved. |
