The economy of the Kingdom of Mount Vema is expected to continue to grow for the next three to four decades. The economy will continue to prosper, based on a comparison of GDP measured at purchasing power parity conversion rates.
Finances
His Mount Vema Majesty’s Treasury is responsible for developing and executing the government's finance policy and economic strategy. The Bank of Mount Vema (an agency of the Royal Mount Vema Reserve Bank) is the central bank of the Kingdom of Mount Vema, and is responsible for issuing notes and coins in the nation's currency, the Mount Vema golle which is becoming an important reserve currency.
The Purchasing Power of the Currency
The Mount Vema real estate although off-plan, is already highly valuable. The 1.2 trillion golles total value of the Kingdom of Mount Vema entire projected property stock and the Vema Seamount territory itself is more than the combined gross domestic products (GDP) of some well-developed countries.
The Economy
Mount Vema has an economy that is already attracting a large amount of foreign investment because of its corruption free environment, and a long-term growth strategy, aiming to be among the world's most competitive economies. This is an economy where the Government buys needed goods and services predominantly in the private marketplace, and private individuals and business firms make most of the decisions. Firms also enjoy great flexibility in decisions to expand, to develop new products, and lay off surplus workers.
The economy of Mount Vema is starting with an initial concentration on the construction industry and logistics. It will later be followed by other heavy industries such as shipbuilding which will be needed to maintain the floating city structures that, will provide the platform for merchants, and shippers to expand. However, fisheries, banking, financial services, and tourism are likely to become the most important part of the economy in years to come.
Employment and Jobs Creation
Although the government plans to place limits on inflows of workers, foreign workers will make up 99% of the construction industry and up to 90% of the service industry after the construction of the City of Mount Vema. So foreign workers will be crucial to the country's domestic and overseas economy as the legal entities of the Kingdom of Mount Vema are already becoming among the largest creators of employment across the world.
Taxation
Mount Vema tax is progressive, and is currently levied by the state to Mount Vema citizens worldwide. Citizens are taxed 10% on their income irrespective of where they live or where their income is earned. However when the construction of the City of Mount Vema is completed, tax will also be levied to residents living and working in Mount Vema, and will be taxed on their income to cover the cost of basic services to be provided by the state.
Fisheries
Fisheries is another source of government revenues. Although currently the government makes very little use of this option as it forms part of His Mount Vema Majesty’s Reserves and requires the approval of The Sovereign - The Vema Seamount territory. However with its marine life alone fisheries is an asset that represents the value of ownership of the Vema Seamount Authority that can be converted into cash as collateral at any time to enable His Mount Vema Majesty’s Government to raise finance to pay for the country’s obligations.
Expenditure
The annual spending budget is determined by the country’s debt ceiling, signed by the Sovereign every August and announced on the first week of September. Although the total estimated value of the City of Mount Vema entire projected real estate is more than 1.2 trillion golles, the estimated annual operational and development expenditure by 2030 is 16.4 billion golles from the projected income of 32 billion golles from fisheries, services, and returns from long term strategic investments.
Tourism
No other floating city or floating city-state in the world will be like Mount Vema, not at least for the next 100 years, everything Mount Vema does now is pioneering. So, tourism is expected to be a major industry and contributor to the Mount Vema economy, however projections in terms of total number of visitors per year are not yet available.
