AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

JetBlue Debt & Fiscal Pressure: Tourism Minister Kishore Shallow told Parliament the Unity Labour Party administration left the government owing JetBlue over EC$10m, a liability the NDP inherited, while the finance ministry also reported a revenue decrease for April–July and an overall deficit of EC$57.78m. Financial Sector Accountability: Liquidators in the Classic Car Fund/Classic Investment Fund scandal are reportedly preparing to escalate the dispute to the Caribbean Court of Justice, pushing for court action over alleged fraud and regulatory failures. SME & Business Support: CED’s Church-funded business development programme has graduated 12 entrepreneurs, with registration help and a US$2,000 grant each, while a CDB-backed CED strategic plan closing ceremony is set to reshape private-sector support. Agriculture & Food Security: IICA delivered soil-health agricultural kits to SVG farmers under a climate-resilient project, and FAO launched a coconut and soursop training mission. Fisheries Infrastructure: EU/OECS BioSPACE funding is driving the EC$3.2m Bequia fish market rehabilitation. Labour & Cost of Living Signals: New data highlights how minimum wages translate into purchasing power globally, useful context for local wage discussions. US Visa Policy Ripple: A US court struck down Trump’s immigrant visa ban affecting 75 countries, including several Caribbean states, with implications for families and cross-border business planning. Diplomacy for Development: Taiwan and SVG are in talks on funding a national development bank and social projects, but nothing is finalized yet. Data for Policy: Government is preparing the 2026 Survey of Living Conditions and Household Budgetary Survey, with enumerator training starting Aug. 31.
