Jamaica’s recovery and long-term development will require more than government funding alone. I have said that we will use concessional financing, climate and resilience financing, public-private partnerships, and also mobilise Jamaica’s own savings, including pension funds and insurance capital, to support major national infrastructure projects. Many of the projects we are building will become long-term public assets that serve Jamaicans and generate stable returns. This is where pension funds can play a responsible role, when projects are properly structured and well governed. This is how economies grow. Savings are turned into investment, investment into infrastructure, infrastructure into productivity, and productivity into better living standards. At the same time, pension funds must always be protected. The goal is not to use pension savings carelessly, but to create strong, well-planned national projects that can safely attract investment.(Andrew Holness)
