Economy
-------

Economic overview: Anguilla has few natural resources, and the
economy depends heavily on tourism, offshore banking, lobster
fishing, and remittances from emigrants. Output growth has averaged
about 7% in recent years, mainly as a result of boom in tourism
thanks to economic expansion in North America and the UK. The
economy, and especially the tourism sector, suffered a setback in
late 1995 due to the effects of Hurricane Luis in September.
Agricultural output had only just begun to recover from a drought in
1994 when Luis hit. Anguillan officials have put substantial effort
into developing the offshore financing sector. A comprehensive
package of financial services legislation was enacted in late 1994.
In the medium term, prospects for the economy will depend on the
tourism sector and, therefore, on continuing income growth in the
industrialized nations.
