We knew Panama was a winner the moment we laid eyes on it. International Living ranked Panama the number one retirement destination in the world well before the mainstream press caught on. In our book, Panama topped the charts, taking the number one spot in our annual Retirement Index not once or even twice, but seven times in a row. And in 2014, it’s back at the number one spot yet again. Panama has always ranked high, partly thanks to its perfect score in the “Special Benefits for Retirees” category of the index. This year, however, Panama got an additional boost thanks to new immigration friendly programs that make it easier than ever to move here. Quite a feat, considering the Pensionado or pensioner residence program already made moving here a cinch for anyone on a qualifying pension.
In 2016, International Living ranked Panama the number one place in the world to retire for so many reasons. Panama is not only the most sophisticated offshore haven in the Americas but it also has the best retiree benefits in the world.
