Ladies and gentlemen, good morning.

It is my distinct pleasure to welcome each of you to the 9th Growth and Resilience Dialogue at the ECCB.

Welcome to your Central Bank. We work for you!

I especially welcome the Honourable Cora Richardson-Hodge, Premier of Anguilla and Chairman of the Monetary Council, who is making her first visit to the Bank since her assumption to office. Premier, we extend our special welcome and best wishes to you and your government.

Do we have any first-time visitors? Let us applaud them.

To our returning colleagues and guests, welcome back.

I encourage you to enjoy the vitality and beauty of the ECCB Campus.

Be inspired and leave energised.

I express my gratitude for the continued success of this Dialogue. Now in its 9th edition, this Dialogue is unique in its offering as a veritable vehicle for innovation and inspiration, for its collection of diverse participants and talents.
