Business Barometer: Trinidad and Tobago CEO Survey:

Progress on fiscal consolidation and a recent rebound in commodity prices have led to a more optimistic medium-term outlook among CEOs in Trinidad and Tobago. In our previous OBG Business Barometer: Trinidad and Tobago CEO Survey, released in late 2017, 57% of C-suite executives had positive expectations for the coming 12 months, which improved to 69% in our latest results from July 2018. Furthermore, over two-thirds say they are likely or very likely to make a significant capital investment in the coming year. This is perhaps due in part to the country’s favourable tax environment, which 64% of respondents describe as competitive or very competitive on a global scale.
