Cuban Capitalism is the compilation of over 15 years of detailed professional and academic research on Cuba’s slow transition into a modern economy. Since the downfall of the Soviet Bloc, Cuba has had to embrace many semi-capitalistic principles to survive. Even though Cuba has suffered many years of an U.S. imposed political and economic embargo, the Island has proven to be an attractive market that has survived these pressures while continuing to encourage international investors to come to the Island.
Most importantly, Cuba has succeeded in keeping its major trading and investment partners despite the embargo through carefully laid out foreign investment initiatives. More and more nations, companies and individuals are investing in Cuba and many of them are making fortunes. However, for every success story, there are numerous stories of ill-prepared companies that have had less than pleasing experiences. Cuban Capitalism takes an in-depth view of the legal, trade, and investment developments that have been transpiring since the adoption of the foreign investment incentives. It is geared towards preparing the uninitiated to invest in Cuba and come out a winner.
