Economy
A range of crops, including maize, cassava, bananas and coconuts, are grown for domestic consumption. Guam is also an important re-export centre for distribution of goods throughout the Pacific, particularly to Micronesia.
Government policy presently concentrates on attracting foreign investment, principally from Asia, and has been examining the country’s potential as an offshore financial centre. However, the development of the latter is not favoured by the extensive competition in the Pacific and Guam’s tax laws.
