Politically, Nicaragua has a troubled past. Many Nicaraguans fled the country in the 1970s and 1980s during the revolution and subsequent Contra war there.
Interestingly, the people who fled or were forced out of the country were people of means – doctors, lawyers, and other highly-educated citizens.
As Nicaragua returned to peace in the 1990s, many of those same citizens have made their return.
The time they spent outside of the country though was spent mostly in the US and in Canada. So they returned with a strong sense of how a free market works. And so Nicaragua is very much a free market today.
They are strongly democratic and English is increasingly used, especially in the world of business.
With all that in mind, it’s not surprising that there is a market in Nicaragua for just about any business. And with it, there is a market for just about any type of investment.
