Ministry
of Finance
The vision of the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development
is to improve the quality of life for all citizens and residents
on Montserrat through the efficient and effective allocation of
financial resources and the promotion of sound economic and
financial policies and programmes.
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to advise on, coordinate and implement the
Government’s economic and fiscal policies and programmes
including the generation and allocation financial resources to
provide appropriate public services and to contribute to the
overall development of Montserrat.
The Ministry is primarily concerned with the achievement of the
second strategic objective outlined in the Sustainable
Development Plan that is, ‘to encourage economic and financial
stability and growth’. The other objectives will be supported
but will be achieved mainly through other ministries and
departments. Our corporate goals therefore are as follows:
-
To generate and/or negotiate the finances
necessary to fund ministries and departments projects and
programmes;
-
To improve financial governance in the public
service;
-
To allocate available financial resources in
a manner that would maximise the benefits to the economy;
-
To monitor, evaluate and recommend policy
options to Government for consideration and approval;
-
To respond to regional and international
initiatives as required through the appropriate channel.
