Dominican Republic
Growing service and tourism sectors in the Dominican Republic haven’t been enough to stem the high unemployment rates and income inequality in the country. Approximately a third of the population is living below the poverty line, and a significant number of people still lack access to formal financial services such as bank accounts.
