Abstract

The people of the Caribbean face significant development challenges as their small, export-dependent countries adjust to loss of preferences in an increasingly competitive global marketplace. New technologies and rapid changes in the global economy present new opportunities, but they require the region to adjust, or else be left behind. To meet the challenge of this new competitive environment, the region must do all it can to encourage investment in competitive enterprises. This will include steps to reduce risks to the investment and to the infrastructure on which it depends.
