The Commonwealth of the Bahamas is an English-speaking British-dependency located in the north of the Caribbean Sea. The Bahamas is grouped made up of more than 700 islands and islets scattered over about 260,000 sq.kms and with 392,873 inhabitants, for a GDP of US$9,05 billion (source : World Bank, 2016).
Despite little in the way of natural resources and a limited industrial sector, the Bahamas is one of the richest countries in the Caribbean. The Bahamian economy relies heavily on tourism and financial services. The Bahamas maintains close economic and political links with the United States, from which it welcomes many visitors each year. The United States is by far its biggest trade and investment partner, ahead of China and other countries like the Dominican Republic, India and Japan.
France is also part of the Bahamian landscape with some major companies present, primarily in the infrastructure and tourism sector (source : France diplomatie, January 2018).
In order to meet the needs of its customers on the Bahamian market, Simon Associés has developed privileged relations with economic and legal partners locally.
