Headwinds Facing the Post-Pandemic Recovery in the Caribbean

Season 1

Thursday, February 16, 2023 • Duration 16:53

After two tumultuous years, 2023 remains characterized by headwinds facing countries across the world. Just as the pandemic’s effects began to dissipate in 2021, a new series of shocks emerged to test Caribbean economies’ fragile recoveries and resilience in 2022, linked in large part to residual impacts of the COVID-19 crisis on supply chains and demand conditions, rising inflation and tightening financial conditions, as well as new global shocks — particularly driven by the conflict in Ukraine.

In this podcast episode, the Caribbean economics team discuss their latest Caribbean Quarterly Bulletin, highlighting two main themes: first, forecasts of key macroeconomic indicators, informed by recent expectations for the speed and breadth of tourism recovery across the region; and second, how financial sector risks have evolved since the onset of the pandemic, including a focus on policies undertaken across the region to dampen the impact of this historic shock on banks, corporates, and households.

Digital Infrastructure & Development in the Caribbean

Monday, January 10, 2022 • Duration 13:42

Our latest issue of the Caribbean Quarterly Economic Bulletin highlights new IDB research suggesting that many Latin American and Caribbean countries lag behind most advanced economies in digital and telecommunications infrastructure. Closing these gaps could yield dividends in productivity, employment, and growth—particularly for the six members of the IDB’s Caribbean Country Department (The Bahamas, Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago). For some Latin American and Caribbean countries, the benefits in faster growth outweigh the costs.

In our podcast, host Golda Lee Bruce talks with co-authors David Rosenblatt (Regional Economic Advisor, IDB Caribbean Department), Henry Mooney (Research Economics Advisor, IDB Caribbean Department) and Antonio Garcia-Zaballos (Sector Lead Specialist, Telecommunications), who share some key insights from the publication.
