The original inhabitants of the Bahamas were the Lucayan indians betweeen the 900 and 1500 ad. The house of assembly of the Bahamas was first officially convened in 1729. The bahamas gained independence July 10, 1973. ON DECEMBER 7, 1971 THE BAHAMAS WERE GRANTED A NEW COAT OF ARMS. The bahamas is known as one of the most politacally stable countries in the world after 270 years of democratic rule. - Sovereign: Queen elizabeth II 1952 - Governor-general: dame marguerite 2014 - prime minister: perry christie 2012

the bahamas \ s o c i a l / c u l t u r a l

The bahamian culture is a culture that has evolved over generations. The bahamas have a colorful culture that cherishes traditional art, unique rhythmic music, and long held traditions told in popular folklore in oral tradition. Roots coming from African decent with the combination of British and American cultural influence. The official language of the islands is English. The people are described as easy-going, friendly, and hospitable people. The racial make up of the islands is 85% of African origin with the rest of the 15% being of European decent. The average life expectancy is 72 years old. The bahamian people are very well educated with a large educated workforce. The bahamas has a rapidly growing professional class. The bahamas is a highly religious country with the most churches per capita in the world. The church is one of the main influences of bahamian society, including government affairs. Regional caribbean music, including reggae, calypso, and merengue have long traditions and influences in bahamian culture. The official music of the Islands is “goombay�. The closest link to Bahamian ancestry is the Junkanoo dance and music form and it has been remarkably unchanged since. It originated from the bahamas during the days of slavery. Junkanoo is a celebration characterized by colorful costumes, goatskin drums. cowbells, horns, and a brass section. Junkoo can be compared to the american mardi-gras. If the date of the parade falls on a sunday it will be held back until monday affecting business affairs. The Junkanoo festival happens on BoXing day and on new years day. The vibrant colors and dramatic themes of the Junkanoo festival form the basis for the artistic expression along the islands. Liestyle, social struggles, strong religious influences and the breathtaking beauty of the island are clearly seen as strong influences in the art of the bahamas.

Offering a vareity of options and unique characteristics the bahamas is the perfect climate for business investment, growth and evolution. The bahamas does not tax on income. Capital gains, corporate earnings, personal income, sales, inheritance, or dividends are all tax exempted. This is a freedom that is not only extended to resident corporations but to all partnerships, individuals, and trusts. The Bahamian dollar is usually on par with the us dollar. The bahamian dollar is recognized for it’s steady performance and unwavering value. The stability of the bahamian economy makes it a viable place for investment foundation. Other factors such as a flexible immigration policy is another valuble characteristic of the bahamian economy -- this enables them to easily gain work permits to key personelle. Foreign investment is a large part of the bahamian economy; with investors such as; hong kongs hutchinson port holdings, kerzner international ltd, baha mar development co, sandals resorts, superclubs, and adurion investment management. This is possible since the bahamas provides incentives for investors past the benefits of tax freedom such as relief from customs duties on approved raw materials, equipment and building supplies. Gdp in the bahamas is approximately 5.7 billion with tourism accounting for 50 percent, financial services for nearly 20 percent and the rest is spread among retail and wholesale trade. Since the bahamas are a income tax neutral zone the country drives its revenue from customs duties, property tax, and stamp duties. The bahamas is also in the process of gaining membership into the world trade organization and currently holds an “observer� status. The main exports of the country are pharmaceuticals, cement, rum, crawfish, and refined petroleum products.

residents of nassau commute to work by car, so most main thoroughfares have bumper-to-bumper traffic during rush-hour. a system of jitneys are reliable but does not alleviate the congestion. Outside of the island of nassau, traffic jams are rare. A system of mail boats provides transportation for mail, freight and people between nassau and the other islands on a weekly, bi-weekly, or a monthly basis. the national airline links all major islands. Air routes radiate from nassau, making it necessary to change to a commuter plan in nassau when traveling between family islands.

The type of culture that is represented in the Bahamas is a very creative and historic. The diverse culture in the Bahamas has reminded visitors of the love for celebration and community. Bahamians are eager to show of their island and tell stories to point out hidden treasures of the island you may not know are there if you’re vacationing. Majority of the people who live in the Bahamas are West African descent, whose ancestors were captured and forced into slavery to work on cotton plantations in America. Others are of England Puritan descent that immigrated to Bermuda in search of religious freedom and settling on Eleuthera Island. This has created a melting pot of people on the island, and what has shaped The Bahamas into who they are today. According to the CIA World Factbook, 96% of Bahamians are Christians. Christianity is important to the Bahamian culture that the preamble of the country’s constitution declares an “abiding respect for Christian values and the Rule of Law.” The prevalence of Christianity can be seen in local schools, and in the country’s government. Most Bahamians celebrate all Christian holidays. A minority of the Bahamians follow Obeah, which is a belief system unique to the Bahamas and closely related to Voodoo. Obeah is illegal, but still practiced among the islands. Junkanoo is a national Bahamian festival with West African roots that is very important to Bahamian culture. It takes place once the day after Christmas, and once on New Years day. The festival involves elaborate costumes, parades with large floats, and traditional music, much like Mardi Gras. The Bahamian find this extremely important because it is regarded to as the soul of their culture, and the only aspect of their society that is truly unique to the Bahamas. The Bahamian culture also includes a strong Oral tradition that derives its myths and legends from a mix of African and European folklore. Other popular traditions say that the Fountain of Youth and the Lost City of Atlantis are located in the Bahamas.

While men and women are given an equal opportunity to occupy powerful positions in society, women have more access to different options. Masculinity is more restrictive than femininity and is associated with aggression, sexual conquest, and cultivating a close-knit male peer group. Femininity is associated with a high social status and marriage, giving women more access to social options than men in the Bahamian society.

The Bahamian negotiation style is hierarchical in nature. This may be influenced by the UK and USA. This means that in meetings you may be discussing decisions that have already been made rather than about negotiating.

The postal system is efficient, although mail is not delivered to houses or businesses. Mail can be picked up from the postal offices. The national telephone company provides phone service to all major islands. Cell phones and internet are common and on the rise, especially among the youth. The government owned radio and television stations could be received on many of the islands. Recently, privately operated radio and television stations have been permitted to operate. There are two principal newspapers that circulate, primarily in Nassau, but various copies to find their way to other islands.

Business is conducted as it is in any westernized location. The Islands have hotels with business centers, conference rooms, and corporate entities maintaining offices. For business meetings, Funerals, and church services, clothing is Suits for Gentlemen, and formal attire for Women. Lightweight variations of the theme can be suitable, but a “Miami Vice” take – open necked shirts and daytime cocktail dresses – would not be suitable for first or formal meetings.

The Bahamians are very friendly people. When meeting and addressing someone in the Bahamas, unless it’s a close friend or family, it is proper etiquette to offer a handshake. Handshakes must be firm and friendly. Both the men and women undertake in handshakes, although sometimes it is best to wait for the woman to offer her hand first. Hugs, Kissing, and the informality of using first names is reserved for friends and family and should only happen if initiated by your Bahamian counterpart. Bahamians are very open and conversational people, always offering salutations and asking “How are you” to strangers and friends alike. It is then people etiquette to engage in a light, brief, and polite convo as a “Lead in” if you intend to make a request or ask a question. Direct eye contact and smiling while shaking someone’s hand is also proper etiquette.

Everyone is to treat a business card with the upmost respect. It is believed the way you handle a business card is the way you will treat the person. Avoid writing on the business card, as it is believe to be a sign of disrespect.

When you first meet someone, it is smart to address the other person as Mr. and Mrs. followed by his or her last name. If a title does not exist, then address them to their honorific title. Always wait for the person to permit you to address them by their first name.

g e s t u r e s

Direct eye contact is a common communication style because avoiding eye contact can lead to suspicions about character and motives. Direct eye contact must remain consistent throughout discussions. Standing arms length from each other but touching between men and women, women to women, and man to women is ubiquitous and depends on how well they know each other and social setting. A common gesture among the Bahamians is to Suck Teeth (making a sucking noise with parted lips) to express contempt or disgust. If you’d like to add emphasis one will tip the head back slightly once or twice while making the noise.

The colors that have significant meaning in the Bahamian culture are the colors on the countries flag. The colors symbolize the image and aspirations of the people of The Bahamas. Black on the flag is a strong color, which represents the vigor and force of a united people. The triangle pointing towards the body of the flag represents the enterprise and determination of The Bahamian people to develop and possess the rich resources of sun and sea, symbolized by gold and aquamarine respectively.

Family and good friends give gifts for birthdays, Christmas, and other significant events in one’s life. Gifts do not have to be expensive, and gift giving is a relaxed affair and has little protocol. There are no restrictions on what kind of wrapping paper to use, and the gifts are generally opened upon receiving them. If you are invited into a Bahamians home, you must bring fruit, flowers, or wine for the hosts.

t i m e

Although Bahamians are laid back, you must arrive to meetings on time. Although being prompt is important, you may find differences in the approach to meeting times and deadlines depending upon the age of your Bahamian business associate. The business culture is heavily influenced by the USA and UK. Since relationships are highly valued, be prepared to spend time during a meeting talking about non business related topics.


j o k e

t e l l i n g

Bahamians have a good sense of humor and use it in all manner of situations. Bahamians are humorous within their use of self-deprecating remarks or jokes This originates from the lack of toleration for arrogance and superiority. Being self-depreciating, especially if it is done in a humorous manner, displays their down to earth sensibilities. Bahamians like to tease each other, as well as make fun of themselves. Poking fun at each other is seen as harmless, and good nature banter.

You cannot sit down until you are invited to and told where to sit. You cannot begin eating until the host starts. Meals are often served buffet or family style. You should keep your elbows off the table and your hands above the table while eating. It is considered polite to finish everything on your plate so you do not appear wasteful, if you can’t finish everything you may leave a little bit of food on your plate.

Appropriate conversation topics Bahamians hold with their counterparts would be a standard “How are you,� and talking about your families. Unless initiated by your counterpart, you should avoid sensitive topics like finances and politics. Religion is a topic you can talk about if you share the same beliefs, as the country is big on their following and practicing.

The bahamas and the united states have always been close trading partners. the us and bahamas share their values in education in particular; as well as ethnic and cultural ties. there are 110 american owned business in the bahamas. The stable economy and government are huge pros for the trading of goods in between the countries. The close monitary exchange rate make it easier for the trading of goods.
