Pompeo to sign MoU on private sector investment in infrastructure

A  Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) will tomorrow morning be signed between the United States and Guyana that positions this country, with US help, to bolster private sector investment in infrastructure, Washington yesterday announced.

Signing for the US will be its Secretary of State Michael Pompeo, who will from this evening, begin a two-day visit here where discussions will be held on a number of matters of mutual concern, and for Guyana it will be President Irfaan Ali, who has trumpeted foreign investment opportunities during the campaign for his presidency this year.

“The Secretary will also sign a Growth in the Americas memorandum of understanding. This will permit Guyana to improve its investment-enabling environment so that the country can benefit from transparent infrastructure investment that respects Guyana’s sovereignty,” a senior US official yesterday told reporters in Washington.
