A bank balance that sits untouched for 15 years is presumed abandoned under the Banking Act. The rule is the same across all eight member countries of the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union.

“Untouched” means no deposit, withdrawal or written communication with the institution during that period. The rule also covers more than savings and current accounts — including matured fixed deposits, dividends, prepaid credit-card funds, certain share payments, certified cheques and the interest on those balances.

Once a balance reaches that point, the institution publishes the owner’s details and subsequently transfers the balance to the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB). The ECCB maintains a public list of owners and updates it monthly.

The important part: the money remains claimable for another 15 years.

Claims are made through the financial institution where the account was held — not directly to the Central Bank. A deceased relative’s balance can also be claimed through the same route. After 30 years in total, the balance passes to the government of the country where the account was held.

Three cottages on a hillside in Calibishie, a pool, an open bar, and the sea in the distance. Guide price: EC$1,000,000.

ECAMC is offering Calibishie Cottages for sale — a compact hospitality property on Dominica's north-east coast, sitting on 9,788 sq. ft. at Calibishie Flat. Three two-storey buildings hold three self-contained one-bedroom units, each with its own kitchen and bathroom, set on grounds that include a swimming pool and an open bar.

It is the kind of holding that suits an operator who wants a small, manageable footprint in a village that visitors already seek out — close enough to the north coast's beaches and attractions to trade on them, small enough to run without a large team.

The property is sold as-is. Furnishings shown are staged and do not form part of the sale.

Have a look through the gallery, then tell us — who do you know who has been waiting for exactly this?

A credit bureau — an institution that holds a record of how credit has been repaid — operates in all eight ECCU countries, and it has a new owner.

The bureau is run by EveryData ECCU Limited from its office in St John's, Antigua, and Antigua and Barbuda was the first of the eight countries to go live on the system, in September 2024. EveryData has now been acquired by Creditinfo Group, a credit information group operating in more than thirty countries. As at July, 83 per cent of licensed financial institutions were participating in the bureau, and 13 credit unions had been onboarded.

Before the bureau, a lender assessing an application had to contact the references listed on the form and run checks with previous lenders one by one. It can now see a single record of how credit has been repaid, and decide on that basis.

That record is not built from bank lending alone. Utilities, telecommunications providers, development banks, hire purchase companies and retailers have been designated as credit information providers across the eight member states.

Under the ECCU credit reporting legislation a borrower is entitled to one free credit report a year, and to a further free copy where an application is declined because of what the report contains.

ECAMC works at the other end of the same system: acquiring non-performing loans from banks and managing the collateral that secures them.

What is the ECAMC internship programme for?

Our Manager, Asset Acquisition, Management and Recoveries, Patricia Etienne, on why the Corporation built it, what a student gets from working across eight territories and two legal systems — and what we look for in an applicant.

"We look for competence. Initiative. Professionalism. And that intuitive spirit — seeing what needs doing before being told."

"One thing I learned is that administration is really the backbone of development."

Neriah Sandin spent six weeks this summer with the Eastern Caribbean Asset Management Corporation — the institution owned by all eight ECCU governments and headquartered right here in St. John's.

She came to us studying Development Studies. Her assignment was digitising the Asset Management Department's files: scanning, organising and transferring records into the Corporation's digital environment, and improving the filing structure while she did it. Along the way she saw how administration, records and technology hold an institution together — across eight territories and two legal systems.

Here is her summer, in her own words.

From 15 October, a bank customer in the ECCU with a complaint will have somewhere to take it.

The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank's new Office of Financial Conduct opens at the end of September and begins accepting complaints on 15 October. It covers fees and charges, unclear information, and difficulty accessing basic banking services. Complaints are free of charge and may be made online, in writing, or in person.

Five of the eight member territories have passed the legislation.

ECAMC works at the other end of the same system: acquiring non-performing loans from banks and managing the collateral that secures them.

Details are on the ECCB's website.
