Montenegro's biggest value that I see is the fact that citizens of Montenegro are eligible for Panama's Friendly Nations Visa, so for the American who wants to renounce, and wants to run their business from Panama because its territorial tax regime is beneficial, Montengro citizenship also provides a fairly decent travel document as passports go. Does Grenada give you more Visa Free countries? Yes, but it gives you access to Vietnam relatively on par with the US, and it gives you Russia Visa Free. Grenada is a much better passport value, but If you could couple Montengro with Turkey, then Mexico, South Africa, Morrocco, Thailand, and Japan along with Mongolia and the other former Soviet Republics Turkey gives you would probably rival Grenada in terms of value as a travel document, but it also gives you a beautiful coastal region of Europe on the Adriatic and a very low tax rate of its own versus a tiny Caribbean Island nation as a potential home base. If you were building a passport portfolio that also included potential home bases Montenegro would be a useful place to be able to live. If you could combine it with Turkey, and Grenada it gives you access to most of the visa free world. Is Grenada a better cost for more access, yes, as would be most of the Caribbean CBI countries, but the ability to inexpensively add Panama via the friendly nations residency has some value I believe that the Caribbean CBI countries do not have.
