The Ministry of Finance, Economic Affairs and National Development is charged with  the management of Saint Lucia's financial and economic resources, while utilizing suitable consultative mechanisms to deliver high quality service to the public and to contribute to the formulation of appropriate policies, in order to accelerate social and economic development.

It is in recognition of this quintessential mission and its role in the development initiatives of the Government of Saint Lucia, that the Ministry of Finance has opened its electronic doors-in keeping with the Government's goal to maximize the use of information and communication technologies (ICTS) in the delivery of its services to the people of Saint Lucia.

This initiative embodies Government's efforts to showcase its work and to enhance good governance and transparency, in part through its various eGovernment initiatives. The Ministry of Finance, Economic Affairs and National Development has now created a direct link between the people of Saint Lucia and a vast number of government services, through information and knowledge sharing.

The Ministry of Finance is pleased to present this new portal; a gateway to up-to-date information on Government's economic performance, new and existing government polices and their impact on the populace; as well as data on government expenditure and economic and social priorities.

http://finance.gov.lc provides the transparency that all Saint Lucians, whether at home or abroad, expect, while ensuring potential investors, domestic or international, can gain fingertip access to government incentives. This dynamic and streamlined vessel is in complete harmony with the demands of a modern and fast-paced economy.

This new website acknowledges the centrality of information technologies in today's global political economy. It is in sync with the development of a National Information and Communication Technology Policy for Saint Lucia and provides unprecedented and unlimited access to government agencies, services and information from anywhere at any time.
