- La economía de la isla de Santa Elena depende en gran medida de la ayuda financiera del Reino Unido, que ascendió a unos $ 5 millones en 1998. La población de Santa Elena obtiene ingresos de la pesca, la cría de ganado y la venta de artesanías. Debido a que hay pocos puestos de trabajo, una gran proporción de la fuerza de trabajo ha salido a buscar empleo en el extranjero. (es)

| - La economía de la isla de Santa Elena depende en gran medida de la ayuda financiera del Reino Unido, que ascendió a unos $ 5 millones en 1998. La población de Santa Elena obtiene ingresos de la pesca, la cría de ganado y la venta de artesanías. Debido a que hay pocos puestos de trabajo, una gran proporción de la fuerza de trabajo ha salido a buscar empleo en el extranjero. AUna campaña está en marcha (reportado en la BBC Radio 4, , 10 de julio de 2004) para estimular la emigración del Reino Unido a Santa Elena para ayudar al desarrollo de la economía. El gobierno británico anunció su intención a principios de 2005 para financiar la construcción de un aeropuerto internacional en la isla en 2010. En 2009, el gobierno pospuso los planes, mientras que el Reino Unido estaba en recesión. Se estima que el costo total de la construcción sería de más de 300 millones de libras. El producto interno bruto (PIB) de Santa Elena por paridad de poder adquisitivo durante los años 1994/5 fue de US$13.9 millones, y la cifra per cápita fue de $ 2.000. El ejercicio financiero se ejecuta en Santa Elena del 1 de abril al 31 de marzo. El presupuesto de Santa Elena ha tenido ingresos de $ 11,2 millones, con un costo de $ 11 millones en el ejercicio que finalizó 1993. (es)
- The economy of Saint Helena is based on export income from coffee, tourism, fishing, and sales of alcoholic liqueurs. Unemployment is very low in Saint Helena; the February 2016 Census stated that 76 people declared that they were unemployed (with 10 claiming unemployment benefit) compared to an economically active population of 2,539 and a total population of 4,534. Saint Helena is one of four countries which depend on financial assistance from the United Kingdom, which amounted to about £22.5 million in 2016–17. This supplements the £12.6 million raised from local tax revenues. The international airport has been open for private jets and Medivac services since 2016. A scheduled commercial air service began in October 2017. With a total investment of £285m the airport is the largest single investment ever made in the island. Until 2016, the only way to reach the island was by boat. The last working Royal Mail Ship made its final voyage serving St Helena in 2018. Saint Helena's gross domestic product (GDP) for the 2018–19 financial year was £38.5 million and GDP per capita was £7,392 and GNP per capita was £8,230. In 2019, there was an annual rate of inflation of 3.3% and a median employment income was £8,410. The major private sector employers of the islands are Solomons and Co and Thorpes, both providing services in almost all sectors. The government's economic development priorities are developing a sustainable tourism industry and reducing dependency on imports. (en)
