Puerto Rico once stood as one of the strongest economic success stories in the Caribbean—and according to former Secretary of Economic Development Tito Colorado, it can happen again.
In this episode of the Puerto Rico Business Broadcast, I sit down with Tito Colorado to explore Puerto Rico’s economic history, the rise created by tax incentives, the elimination of Section 936, and what led to the island’s economic decline. We also discuss Puerto Rico’s current incentives under Act 60, the future of statehood vs. Commonwealth, labor participation challenges, and Tito’s vision for long-term prosperity.
If you’re interested in Puerto Rico business, investing, tax incentives, economic development, or the island’s future, this is a must-watch conversation.
