Finance Minister Calls for Increased Domestic Investments

• Minister of Finance and the Public Service, Dr. the Hon. Nigel Clarke, says there is a need for greater levels of local investments, in order to sustain Jamaica’s economic growth.
• “We have had a lot of foreign investment. But I don’t think domestic investment has yet been unleashed in the way that it can and ultimately will,” he said.
• He highlighted that the Government has been working to restore economic stability through the implementation of policies that “encourage and incentivize greater levels of domestic and foreign investment”.
• The Minister was speaking at the Destination Experience Masters of Industry Reception, which was held at the Mercedes Benz showroom on South Camp Road in Kingston on April 5.
