“The theme for this year’s Annual Meeting represents our collective ambition and commitment to respond to the critical challenges facing our people by reimagining how we make our institutions more fit for purpose,” he explained. “The choice of Brazil as our host is significant. Brazil’s extensive experience and culture of innovation present us with the opportunity to deepen our cooperation and leverage Latin America’s strengths to support the Caribbean’s development agenda. Our discussions in Brasília will center on actionable and transformational strategies, highlighting the “rebirth” of the Bank as it evolves to meet the changing needs of its member countries amidst rapidly shifting global and multilateral paradigms.

 Our goal is to create institutions that can withstand external pressures while paving the way for equitable prosperity,” President Best added
