CASTRIES, St. Lucia, May 22, CMC – The Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) Wednesday began its 43rd Board of Governors meeting here with St. Lucia’s Prime Minister Dr. Kenny Anthony calling on the international financial institutions such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to develop a new strategic partnership with the region.
Anthony, in a wide ranging address to the governors that also include heads of governments, finance ministers and representatives of developed countries, such as Britain and Canada, said that the financial institutions “prescribe for us but very rarely do we tell them what we expect of them, what we want from them”.
He said the international institutions, of which the region holds membership, must be able to “facilitate our integration into the global economy.
