In Trinidad and Tobago, the Bank has a single pillar country strategy focused on digital transformation for sustainable and inclusive economic growth as it supports the government with its digital transformation in post pandemic times across various sectors such as health, infrastructure, water and sanitation.
The 2021-2025 Country Strategy aims to support the implementation of the country’s digital transformation agenda to achieve more sustainable and inclusive growth—the first pillar of the country’s medium-and long-term post-pandemic development plan. The new strategy focuses on one main area: digitalization to support economic transformation. It also pursues three strategic objectives:
(i) improving the business environment to enable digital transformation;
(ii) expanding the use of digital tools for improving educational outcomes and digital skills;
(iii) and enhancing the delivery of services.
