Dominican Watchdog was established in 2009 by Jan Vistisen, -a well known former long term Danish Investor on The North Coast, Santo Domingo, La Romana and Cap Cana – the goal was simple; to work for greater transparency and better consumer rights for foreigners living or investing on the Dominican Republic.

Dominican Watchdog is not another "Romantic Real Estate Website" trying to lure investors to the Dominican Republic under misleading advertising. We only add products, real estate or services to "Best of DR", which has a proven track record of satisfied clients over a period of min. 10 years.

The mission of Dominican Watchdog is pretty simple to; "Protect and guide investors away from under capitalized projects, and to ensure that investors who have been defrauded or scammed are treated with respect and given the opportunity to speak up with out being intimidated, killed or forced to leave the Dominican Republic.

However, this is not always easy as “Freedom of Speech” and “Consumer Rights” do not mix well with investigations and reports on fraud and corruption on the Dominican Republic. Exposure of fraud and corruption in the DR is known to cause serious treats(read this article from US watchdog), illegal deportation, or even more lethal health problems! So to prevent such intimidation of our employees we have based ourselves in the European Union. We collect and publish large amounts of objective data and local research about the Dominican Republic to better guide and protect foreign citizens and small investors against, weak consumer rights, corruption problems and fraudulent business operations often promising nonexistent warranties and guaranties of high returns. We also work closely with the European Commission and local EU governments on corruption and development aid issues related to the Dominican Republic.

We say is as it is - No matter who - No Matter what ! This is an integrated part of the Danish mentality from the time of birth!

Why a "Danish Watchdog" for the Dominican Republic? Because the most fundamental parts of any prosperous society is based on an open democracy with trust and transparency. The main conditions for trust and transparency is swift and immediate prosecution any Citizen committing corruption. Denmark has the lowest level of corruption according to all international studies.

Everybody-is-equal-under-the-law, freedom of speech, consumer protection, high education levels and a social network taking care of the poor and sick is the five most important factors in order to create a successful country in harmony with its citizens, businesses and neighbors. Denmark has earned that reputation worldwide plus respect for our design and innovation.

As Part of our Danish education, we are made to be skeptical against any source of information and in particular information coming from any Government, be it in Denmark or around the world. Watch these two controversy 9/11 videos from Denmark to understand that Denmark is a serious and influential country that speak up its mind in the international community. We do extensive investigations around the world to uncover the truth. Denmark is in the TOP 3 of worldwide countries using the highest amount of GDP per capita on foreign aid, the other two is Norway and Sweden according to the annual report form OECD.
