STATEMENT FROM THE BRITISH HIGH COMMISSION GEORGETOWN

The British High Commission is proud to announce that UK Export Finance (UKEF),  the UK’s official export credit agency, has raised its financing capacity for Guyana from £2.1 billion to £3 billion. 

This reflects the UK’s confidence in Guyana’s economic trajectory and fiscal  sustainability, and marks a further deepening of the bilateral relationship between our two nations. 

Today’s announcement of support was made by a delegation from UKEF and His  Majesty’s Deputy Trade Commissioner for Latin America and the Caribbean in a  meeting with His Excellency President Mohammed Ali. During the meeting the  President set out his priorities for UKEF collaboration over the next five years.  

This announcement comes at a pivotal moment, as Guyana accelerates its  infrastructural development and positions itself as a key investment destination, reinforcing the UK’s role as a trusted partner in driving inclusive growth. 

The British High Commission looks forward to supporting sustainable growth and  shared prosperity through this collaboration between the UK and Guyana.
