In a striking revelation, the Cayman Islands, one of the Caribbean’s most prominent financial hubs, lacks any form of bank deposit insurance, leaving customers vulnerable in the event of a banking crisis. This oversight stands in stark contrast to neighboring nations like the British Virgin Islands, Bahamas, and Jamaica, which offer varying levels of deposit protection. The absence of such safeguards in the Cayman Islands has raised concerns, particularly in light of recent global banking turmoil, such as the Silicon Valley Bank collapse.
