The Antigua & Barbuda government says it will soon issue a long-term bond with a low interest rate to pay outstanding short-term and high-interest debt.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne, speaking at the Latin America and the Caribbean International Economic Forum 2025, which ended on the island on Thursday, said debt has perennially strangled small island developing states.
Mr Browne said the initiative will help to create additional fiscal space to fund development and build climate resilience.
“We will soon issue a long-term bond with a low interest rate to repay outstanding short-term and high-interest debts, to create additional fiscal space to fund development and to build climate resilience. And certainly CAF has an important role to play in this regard.”
