With Suriname’s Assuria investing in an $800 million headquarters just after nine years of establishing a presence here, Senior Minister with responsibility for finance, Dr Ashni Singh yesterday urged local businesses to take a page out of the insurance company’s book and seek opportunities outside of the domestic market.
Delivering the feature address at the company’s sod-turning ceremony for its headquarters at Carmichael and Church streets, in Georgetown, Singh said the local private sector should not confine itself to the domestic market and like the insurance company, should venture out into other countries and tap into markets that are available.
