AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Trade and Investment: Caribbean exports grew 19.1% in the first half of 2026, with Suriname and Guyana driving the increase, the IDB reports. It says stronger trade could attract investment if governments provide clear, predictable rules. A November 18 seminar in Curaçao will explore business opportunities tied to Suriname’s expanding oil and gas sector, including cross-border tax issues. Offshore Energy: The Noble Discoverer is preparing for a TotalEnergies drilling campaign off Suriname, expected to begin in early 2027, bringing demand for regional services. Agriculture: Exporters warn weak pesticide oversight could damage public health and Suriname’s agricultural reputation; local farmers have so far declined residue tests, citing their cost. Mining and Forests: Illegal gold mining is advancing into Indigenous territories in Suriname’s Amazon, bringing forest clearing and mercury pollution that threaten rivers and local livelihoods.
