In his belief that Guyana can be a model developed economy in Latin America and the Caribbean in the next five to ten years, newly-elected Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) President, Mauricio Claver-Carone says that he will do all possible during his tenure to facilitate achieving those goals in a transparent and sustainable manner, benefitting all Guyanese.
“The challenge is to ensure that the resources that are coming to Guyana are properly managed so that the future of Guyana and its people benefit, the growth of Guyana and its economy is sustainable in the long term and that everybody benefits in that regard. We provide a great amount of “know how” and we are ready to be in contact,” the newly-elected President of the development financing bank told a Caribbean round-table discussion last Friday, when asked by Stabroek News about the IDB’s role here in relation to the oil and gas sector.
Claver-Carone said that one of the greatest value-added attributes of the IDB is their need to help countries using the multinational wealth of knowledge in holistic economic and social developmental planning to achieve equality and equity.
