ST. VINCENT AND THE GREMADINES

I. RECENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS

Recent Economic Performance

1. During 1980-85, real GDP, fueled by a strong recovery ofagriculture (131) following two major natural disasters, and the growth oftransportation (9Z), expanded by 52 per annum. During 1986-87, real GDPgrowth accelerated to 6.52 per annum. Value added in construction rose 13%annually, that in electricity and water, 9Z, that in communications, 172,and that in wholesale and retail trade, 9Z. In 1988, real GDP expanded by8.42 in response to good economic management; agricultural value addedclimbed 242 following the sharp downturn caused by a tropical storm in1987. In 1988, GNP per capita reached US$1,100.

2. St. Vincent and the Grenadines' balance of payments currentaccount performance is heavily dependent on capital inflows as well as onworld market and climatic conditions that impinge on banana production.The current account of the balance of payments deficit swelled from 32 ofGDP in 1986 to 17% of GDP in 1987. In 1988 it is estimated to havedecreased to 92 of GDP. These deficits broadly reflect variations in netofficial borrowing (from US$5.2 million in 1986 to US$10.2 million in 1987and US$10.7 million in 1988).

Public Finances

3. St. Vincent and the Grenadines has managed its public financessoundly. Public sector finances improved markedly during 1983-87: publicsector savings increasing from minus 0.8f of GDP in 1983 to 92 1987. TheGovernment has undertaken major efforts to strengthen public sector savingsthrough revenue and expenditure measures. In 1988, central governmentsavings increased to almost 92 of QDP.

External Debt -

4. In 1988, St. Vincent and the Grenadines' total debt outstandingand disbursed equalled an estimated 29? of GDP, and debt service paymentsamounted to only 32 of exports of goods and non-factor services and 6% ofcentral government current revenues.

II. Sectoral Development Issues

Agriculture

5. After suffering from adverse weather conditions during 1986 and1987, banana production increased about 81% in 1988 compared with 1987 andwas 128% above the 1983 production level. Yields have increased from 4.6metric tons per acre in 1983 to about 6.6 metric tons in 1988, but arestill below those of Central American countries (Costa Rica (14.2,, Belize(10.7) and Honduras (17.7). The improvement of yields has been brought

about by increased use of fertilizers and insecticides. Import volumes ofthose inputs increased about 300Z and 200?, rebpectively, betwoen 1983 and1988. The increase in production also was achieved by an increase inacreage of nearly 60Z during that period.

6. Production of non-banana crops has lagged behind because of thehigher profitability in producing and exporting bananas. In addition, non-banana crops are now facing increased competition from Trinidad and Tobago.Output of root crops (sweet potatoes, yams, tannias, eddoes and dasheens),which accounted for 312 of total value added in agricultural (at 1977prices) in 1984, declined by 72 per annum during 1984-88. Competitivenessof agricultural crops in Trinidad and Tobago was affected by the oil boomand this had resulted in increased imports from St. Vincent. The realdevaluation of the Trinidad and Tobago dollar since 1987 restoredcompetitiveness to its non-sugar agriculture. The ensuing increase indomestic production has been displacing imports from St. Vincent. Thesedevelopments did not originate from a misalignment of the real exchangerate between the two countries; rather they resulted from relative pricechanges in Trinidad and Tobago occurring in the aftermath of the oil boomand following the adjustment of the economy.

Manufacturing

7. Manufacturing growth could be affected adversely by a 1989 minimumwage increase (to women--from EC$l0 to EC$20 per day). One manufacturingfirm exporting to the US market closed in 1989 partly in response to thewage increase. Even though actual productivity allows firms to pay wagesabove the new minimum wage, the main issue in the sector seems to berelated to the hiring of new workers whose productivity is initially belowthe minimum wage (e.g. trainees).

Tourism

8. St. Vincent and the GrenadLnes is endowed with a wealth of naturalattractions whick are relatively unspoiled and constitute the underlyingtourist appeal of the country. The geographical diversity among thevarious islands in St. Vincent and the Grenadines produces an interestingblend of holiday options. However, their development means that unless theislands become easy to access, both physically and in terms of bureaucracyat the hubs, their tourism prospects will be hampered.

9. Local sources of finance for hotel development were scarce in thepast. Commercial banks are, however, becoming involved in mortgagelending. The main sources of local financing are the Caribbean Financialservices corporation and the Development Corporation (DEVCO), which borrowsfrom the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) and the European Investment Bank(EIB). The EIB funds are devoted primarily to modest expansions andrenovations. The CDB also finances a few new hotels directly without thpintermediation of DEVCO. Larger hotels have to be financed almost enti from abroad.

10. Improved airport facilities are required for the development oftourism. The EEC financed Bequia Airport Project will be the criticaldevelopment to support air communications into St. Vincent and theGrenadines. Over the long-term, however, the lack of an international

Page 7: St. Vincent and the Grenadines Updating Economic Note · FOR OMCAL USE ONLY ST. VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES j A Bank economic mission visited St. Vincent and the Grenadines in November

airport could deter long distance travelers. To exte'id the existirg mainairport by the 2,000 feet required would entail construction into the sea,which would be very expensive. The international Civil AviationOrganization (ICAO) is providing technical assistance to prepare the termsof reference for a feasibility study for airport development inSt. Vincent.

11. The Government has proposed the restructuring of LIAT, theprincipal regional airline, and the sale of its shares to a joint ventureinternational carrier and to majority Caribbean shareholders. Improvedaccess to the Grenadines is envisaged as a result of airstrip upgrading andconstruction. The resurfacing of Canouan's runaway has recently beencompleted. Plans for the redesign and reconstruction of the Union Islandairport are underway. In addition, a new fifteen year agreement with P;Mustique should contribute substantially to new investments and to thecontinued development of up-market residential tourism in that island. AFinally, there may be a conflict between the requirements of higher marketand the mass market of daily cruiseship tourists. The two may not becompatible. Policy decisions should take into account the relativeadvantages and disadvantages of either.

III. PUBLIC SECTOR INVESTMENT AND EXTERNAL FINANCING REQUIREMENTS

Public Sector Investment Program

12. The Public Sector Investment Program (PSIP) for FY89/90-FY91/92 isestimated at EC$308 million (US$114 million). About 602 of the total PSIPis destined to the economic and social infrastructure, while 302 isdestined for the productive sectors, with agriculture accountingindividually for 752 of the total of the productive sectors. About 102 isdestined to general administration and public safety projects. Thecomposition of the PSIP is consi tent with the Government's objective ofeconomic diversification, with emphasis on the provision of infrastructureto support growth in agriculture, manufacturing and tourism. New projectsamount to approximately 382 of the PSIP total. They include theAgriculture Rehabilitation Project, Development of the Fishing Industry,Post Secondary Education Facility, Industrial Estate Project, Feeder RoadsProject, and the Bequia Airport Project.

External Financing Requirements

13. The financing requirements for the PSIP are estimated to amount toUS$122 million during FY89190-FY91/92. Scheduled amortizations areprojected to be US$8 million during the three year period. Public sectorsavings are projected to provide US$28 million while net domestic credit isprojected to finance US$11 million. Scheduled disbursements under externalcommitments for ongoing projects would provide US$54 millicn. A financinggap for the three years of about US$29 million would remain, for which anexternal donor for US$2 million has to be identified (Grenadines Jetty--cruiseship terminal).
