The meeting also recognized October as Financial Literacy Month within the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU) and underscored the need to integrate financial education into national school curricula.

Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to developing innovative financial products and expanding credit access for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

The initiative, they said, forms part of a broader roadmap to promote economic empowerment and long-term collaboration in the banking sector.

The ABMBA and the ministry also addressed concerns over the rise in banking-related crimes regionally and locally.

They urged the public to remain vigilant against scams and fraudulent schemes and agreed to expand public awareness campaigns promoting responsible banking practices.

The Ministry of Finance and the ABMBA said they remain committed to building a secure, inclusive, and resilient financial system that supports the economic advancement of citizens across Antigua and Barbuda and Montserrat.

  1. This Prime Minister love ah meeting, but when do we witness or see any tangible outcomes?

    I note with much interest that many European Public Sectors are now moving away from endless meetings. They recognise that they are ‘talking shops’ and they want more productivity from their qualified staff, and engage more in the field of work they are employed to do.

    Makes sense to me …

    Europeans are now looking to curtail meetings to once or twice bi-monthly, to include staff training/IT updates and policy implementations, and a yearly conference.

    Nothing more nothing less.

    I don’t dislike meetings per say, but the amount taking place in the Public Sector (especially in governance) is getting way beyond ridiculous and stifles growth and progress.

    Only the work-shy love plenty plenty meetings!

  2. You can trust Brixtonian to bring you the issues that NOBODY (and I mean nobody!) else will talk about.

    It’s a gift me ah tell you … 😉
