Dominican diaspora engagement and investment initiatives

Overview

Efforts to engage the Dominican diaspora in the United States have focused on expanding state services and facilitating real estate investment.

In early August, the Institute of Dominicans in the Exterior (INDEX) held a meeting in Manhattan to reaffirm President Luis Abinader’s commitment to participatory management with citizens living abroad. During this event, INDEX announced the opening of its 15th office in Toronto to serve growing communities and introduced the Oscar de la Renta Award to recognize Dominican talent.

Following this outreach, Banco BHD announced the IV New York City Real Estate Fair, scheduled for September 11–13, 2026. The event aims to connect the diaspora with property acquisition opportunities in the Dominican Republic by featuring over 25 construction and real estate companies, alongside financial advisory services.
