Financing the blue economy: a Caribbean development opportunity

“Financing the Blue Economy: A Caribbean Development Opportunity” examines the potential of the blue economy to drive sustained and inclusive economic growth. The Paper, a joint initiative between CDB and the United Nations Development Programme, also explores factors that can constrain our Region’s ability to take full advantage of the ocean’s potential. New and high-value blue economy growth industries such as aquaculture, marine biotechnology, deep seabed mining, and ocean renewable energy remain under-developed in our Region.This paper assesses the blue economy potential for the Caribbean, and focuses on innovative financing options that will enable policy makers to advance blue economy strategies at a national and regional level.
