`Open invitation extended to Caribbean financial institutions to come to Guyana’

Dr Irfaan Ali

The same support given to western and other countries investing in Guyana will be afforded to Caribbean nations and nationals coming here, President Irfaan Ali yesterday stated.

 “As we have indicated before, the assets of our financial sector are insufficient to develop our petroleum industry, much less to also drive economic and social transformation on the scale which we are pursuing. Therefore, Guyana has set out on a deliberate path to forge enhanced partnerships with major economies such as Brazil, Canada, China, India, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and the United States of America,” Ali said.

“An open invitation is extended to Caribbean financial institutions to come to Guyana and to explore the opportunities available. We are just as keen to partner with regional institutions as we are in forging international partnerships,” he emphasized.
