Permits, People and Power Lines: Accelerating Transmission Projects Through Better Permitting and Implementation

Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) have no shortage of transmission expansion plans. What the region lacks is the ability to turn those plans into built, operating infrastructure fast enough to keep pace with the energy transition. The Inter-American Development Bank’s (IDB) technical note,“Unlocking the Grid: How to Ensure Reliable and Sustainable Energy in Latin...

Financing the Future Grid: Mobilising Capital for Climate-Resilient Transmission in Latin America and the Caribbean

Transmission has become the critical bottleneck in Latin America and the Caribbean’s (LAC) energy transition. It is no longer a background asset class—it is the hinge on which renewable integration, reliability, and economic competitiveness now turn. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) makes this explicit in its technical note “Unlocking the Grid: How to Ensure Reliable...

Regulating for Resilience: Modern Grid Rules to Enable Investment, Innovation and Social License

Regulation is fast becoming one of the most strategic levers for Latin America and the Caribbean’s (LAC) energy future—not just a technical box-ticking exercise. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB)’s new technical note, “Unlocking the Grid: How to Ensure Reliable and Sustainable Energy in Latin America and the Caribbean” (Alarcón & Quirós-Tortós, 2025), places modern, resilient...

Purposive Interpretation Arrives in Caribbean Tax: How the CCJ Is Redrawing the Boundaries

For decades, many taxpayers and even some advisers took comfort in the idea that tax statutes must be read strictly and literally. If the wording left a gap or created an anomaly, the assumption was simple: the benefit goes to the taxpayer. The recent decision of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) in The Bank...

Branches Under the Microscope: What the CCJ’s BNS Ruling Means for Cross-Border Management Charges

The recent decision of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) in The Bank of Nova Scotia v Comptroller of Inland Revenue (Saint Lucia) is not just another tax case for lawyers to debate. It is a clear signal that tax authorities and courts across the Caribbean are ready to scrutinise cross-border payment flows—especially management and...

From Plans to Power Lines: Building Proactive and Robust Transmission Planning in LAC

Transmission lines don’t get built in spreadsheets. But without the right kind of spreadsheet—a credible, coherent planning process—most lines never leave the page. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) makes this point strongly in its technical note “Unlocking the Grid: How to Ensure Reliable and Sustainable Energy in Latin America and the Caribbean.” Chapter 2, “From...

Profitable and Investable – Redesigning Cost Structures and Finance for Caribbean Agribusiness

In every conversation about agriculture, one truth quietly sits beneath the surface: If the numbers don’t work, nothing is sustainable. You can have climate-smart practices, strong governance, and cutting-edge technology—but if the business cannot generate reliable profits and cannot attract appropriate finance, it will struggle to survive, much less grow. For Caribbean agribusiness, this reality...

Resilient by Design – Governance, Risk and Compliance for Modern Caribbean Agribusiness

Agriculture has always carried risk. A bad season, a pest outbreak, a sudden market shift—these are not new realities for Caribbean farmers and agribusinesses. What is new is the scale and complexity of the risks: Climate shocks that hit more often and with greater intensity More demanding regulators and global buyers Rising expectations for food...

From Machete to Microchip – Unlocking Productivity with AgriTech and Data in the Caribbean

For generations, Caribbean agriculture has been built on experience, intuition, and hard physical labour. The machete, the hoe, and the farmer’s eye have been the core “tools” of the sector. But the competitive landscape has changed. Today, agribusinesses in Latin America, North America, Europe, and Asia are using sensors, satellites, farm management software, artificial intelligence,...

Climate-Smart and Sustainable – The ‘C’ in C-AGRI™ and the Future of Caribbean Food Security

Agriculture in the Caribbean has always been more than an economic activity. It is culture, identity, and survival. Yet the very foundations of Caribbean agriculture are under pressure from forces that individual farmers, cooperatives, and agribusinesses cannot control: climate change, ecological degradation, global competition, and shifting consumer expectations. This is exactly why the first pillar...
