Access to sustainable finance is essential if businesses are to invest and grow. Businesses need finance for both working capital and investment purposes. This paper considers the range of finance options available to businesses of different sizes, and the extent to which market failures may constrain access to finance for some businesses. The impact of the financial crisis on the availability of finance, and whether the current challenges are transitional or structural, is also examined. The paper also considers whether there are risks to the future provision of finance that should be addressed now, so that an appropriate range of business finance is available for viable businesses as the economy recovers. Views are sought to help inform the Government's assessment of, and response to, this important challenge.

This publication seeks to examines these issues, and topics discussed include: poverty reduction and income inequality; whether Jamaicas GDP growth has been underestimated; policy options for reducing the fiscal and debt burden, revitalising the financial system; improving education outcomes, tackling the economic costs of crime, and improving international competitiveness.

Border clearance processes by customs and other agencies are among the most important and problematic links in the global supply chain. Delays and costs at the border undermine a country’s competitiveness, either by taxing imported inputs with deadweight inefficiencies or by adding costs and reducing the competitiveness of exports. This book provides a practical guide to assist policy makers, administrators, and border management professionals with information and advice on how to improve border management systems, procedures, and institutions.
