Jamaica's GDP is anchored in tourism, remittances, mining, and agriculture. The island's beaches and cultural heritage make tourism its most significant sector, drawing millions of visitors annually. Bauxite and alumina exports are vital, while sugar, coffee, and bananas represent traditional agricultural strengths. Jamaica has been diversifying its economy into financial services, information technology outsourcing, and renewable energy. Remittances from the Jamaican diaspora also contribute heavily to household incomes. While public debt has historically been a concern, economic reforms and international support have helped Jamaica maintain stability and expand investment opportunities across multiple sectors.
