AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Football Finance Scrutiny: SporTT is demanding answers from the TTFA over accounting and reporting of $6.9m in public funding for the World Cup-qualifying campaign, with claims of unpaid coach and vendor bills stretching back over two years. Central Bank Fraud Case: The Central Bank has filed a High Court suit to recover about $18.8m tied to an alleged $20m forged government cheque, naming NiPat General Contractors and two directors. Energy & Industry Diplomacy: AMCHAM is urging unity to fully capitalise on Venezuela’s Lo­ran gas licence for Shell, while Venezuela and T&T trade accusations in a new oil-spill spat; T&T says it’s investigating with vessels and drones. Credit Confidence: Moody’s upgraded T&T’s outlook to stable from negative, citing improved external prospects and reserves ahead of the mid-year budget review. Tourism Budget Worries: Tourism stakeholders say expectations for Monday’s Mid-Year Budget Review are modest, but they want action on marketing, airlift, arrivals, infrastructure, crime perceptions and FX constraints. Housing Pressure: Terra calls for state intervention to cut bureaucratic delays in approvals that are widening the construction-cost/affordability gap and slowing new residential projects. Agriculture Ease of Doing Business: Farmers’ group leaders warn that poor ease of business—especially input import clearance and financing—keeps agriculture precarious. Transport Safety Spotlight: A commentary highlights how unregulated PH taxis expose commuters to serious risk, after the death of 12-year-old Mercedez Layne. IPO Update: West Indian Traders extended its IPO closing date to June 22, keeping terms unchanged. Health Partnership: T&T formalised a partnership with the Starkey Hearing Foundation to expand hearing-health screening, training and access to assistive technology.
