implementation

This TC aims to strengthen Jamaica's economic growth prospects through the development of targeted trade and investment policy measures. The specific objectives are: (i) strengthening opportunities for the expansion of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) as an effective policy tool to prompt Jamaica's further integration into global supply and value chains, and to attract sustainable investment; (ii) development of a SMEs and entrepreneurship strategy and action plan that foster a more inclusive integration into global trade; and (iii) boosting Jamaica's service sector and its internationalization through a more cohesive policy framework.
