About this session

What you'll take away.

A keynote address from The Hon. Kamla Persad-Bissessar, Prime Minister of Trinidad & Tobago, framing FISC 2026 in the context of the country’s hosting mandate. Expected themes: the role of small-island PFM reform in Caribbean economic resilience, Trinidad’s own modernisation agenda, and what the region expects from the next generation of public-finance technology. Open press; no live Q&A but the secretariat will collect written questions for the closing-day panel.

What you'll leave with
  • The host country's framing of FISC's themes for 2026
  • Trinidad's PFM reform priorities and where they intersect with the delegate community
  • Context for Caribbean-led conversations across the rest of the programme
