Joel Branski, the Inter-American Development Bank’s local representative for Barbados, met with Barbadian Finance Minister Christopher Sinckler today in St Michael, discussing a series of projects currently ongoing in the country. “I am happy and committed to working with the bank on various projects that would enhance the nation,” Sinckler said. Branski gave his assurance that the bank was ready to exist with staffing and other issues with an eye to “smoothen out the bottlenecks that prevented the successful execution of projects.”
