United States Minor Outlying Islands and Capital Introduction

The United States Minor Outlying Islands are a group of small islands and atolls in the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean, including Wake Island, Midway Atoll, Johnston Atoll, Baker, Howland and Jarvis Islands, Palmyra Atoll, Kingman Reef and Navassa Island. None has a permanent population. Some host military or scientific personnel, and most are national wildlife refuges, many within the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument.

Is There an Investor Market?

No. There are no businesses, residents or investors on the islands. Founders working in ocean science, conservation, satellite services or defence technology raise from investors in the United States.

Nearest Capital Markets

For the Pacific islands, the nearest US financial hub is Honolulu, and the nearest GCN dinner markets are Tokyo and Sydney. For Navassa Island in the Caribbean, the nearest is Miami. Companies can also raise across the United States, including in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
