Description
Summary:The staff report for the First Review Under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF) Arrangement highlights Grenada's economic performance in many respects. The time needed to address the unregulated bank, as well as fiscal slippages and the slow pace of structural reform, delayed completion of the first PRGF review. The program entails some risks, particularly with respect to bank restructuring costs, expenditure control, implementation capacity, and natural disasters. The government is considering a concessional loan from the Export-Import Bank of China to finance the construction of a port and marina.
