Guyana had also benefited from an additional $119M in savings from cancelled interest payments.The strategy as outlined by the two parties is expected to engender new, innovative and creative funding and investment methodologies.Firstly, the new strategy is cast in the frame of three policy and investment pillars,Wholesale Jerseys USA, namely: Social Development for growth whereby the GoG and the Bank continues to support asset accumulation while improving access to basic services for all of our peoples so that they may benefit from and contribute to economic development; Enhanced Competitiveness – whereby GoG and the IDB will consolidate on current policies and activities on competitiveness to further enhance our investment profile, locally and internationally, as well as Strategic Infrastructure Investment – whereby GoG and the Bank continues to focus on improving our strategic infrastructure development agenda in support of economic diversification.Secondly, the Country Strategy emphasizes the bank’s increased use of national systems in the execution of its projects and thirdly, by maximizing the efficiency in using IDB resources.“In this regard the meeting discussed the use of flexible lending instruments: to this end,Cheap Jerseys From China, the new country strategy will include at least one programmatic loan and one loan using the Sector Wide Approach.Historically, the IDB has been an engaged and responsive partner in supporting Guyana to surmount its development challenges.Over the years, the Bank has supported several interventions in governance, infrastructure and social development and poverty amelioration in Guyana.In April, 2008 the Minister of Finance inked two agreements totaling US$32.9 million with the IDB for the Power Sector Support Programme and the Agriculture Export Diversification Programme.The IDB’s Executive Vice President’s visit comes after a recent visit by the President of the IDB, Luis Alberto Moreno, in August, 2007 in which President Moreno signed an agreement to finance the pre-feasibility study for the road to Brazil, which comes under the Initiative for Integration of Regional Infrastructure in South America (IIRSA).
