November 26, 2008No. 32/08-GINTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS TO HOST SEMINAR IN BARBADOS ON GLOBAL ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL CRISISRepresentatives of a number of international financial institutions, senior government officials as well as private sector officials will meet in Barbados to look at the impact of the global financial crisis on the Caribbean.The Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), in collaboration with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, will host a one-day seminar entitled Global Financial Crisis and the Caribbean: Impact and Response. The seminar will be held on December 3, 2008, at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Cultural and Conference Centre. These institutions are of the view that the recent increased turmoil in international financial markets can negatively impact both the economic and social development of their borrowing member countries, reversing some of the positive gains that have been experienced in the recent past. They also believe that addressing the issue will require concerted effort on several fronts. The Seminar will provide a forum to exchange ideas on the issue of the global financial crisis from a Caribbean perspective, and to identify ways in which these institutions can be of assistance to the Region in dealing with this issue. It is also expected to provide a clear road map on the nature and type of interventions that are necessary to address the issue.
