This Selected Issues paper summarizes recent development in Barbados’s International Business and Financial Services (IBFS) sector and assesses the extent to which the loss of correspondent banking relationships (CBRs) pose a risk to its future. The contribution of the IBFS sector to the local economy has been relatively stable in recent years but its contribution to fiscal revenues has declined. The sector has displayed lower profitability since the global financial crisis. More recently, it suffered from two changes in Canadian tax legislation. Consequently, tax revenues have declined while other expenditures have largely offset such decline. The sector also faces some risks from the loss of CBRs that has affected most Caribbean countries.

Since independence, Barbados has enjoyed consistent levels of economic success beyond what is typical for a Small Island Developing State (SIDS). This case study investigates the causes of this success and identifies core principles which can be used as a model for SIDSs aiming to increase their economic growth. A combination of good governance; strong taxation treaties and government regulation; and a focus on niche luxury markets are found to have created the foundation of success in Barbados. These factors are shown to have led to the safe and stable environment on the island which has attracted investors and allowed economic activity to thrive. Following the analysis of the causes of economic success, the case study also evaluates the position of the Barbadian economy moving forward and highlights areas that require attention if growth is to continue.
