NEW AMSTERDAM, Berbice — September 28, 2026
President Dr. Irfaan Ali has announced that government will soon introduce a special investment vehicle aimed at giving members of the Guyanese diaspora an opportunity to invest directly in the country's development.
Speaking during a diaspora engagement in New York, President Ali said the initiative will allow Guyanese living overseas to contribute to key projects while benefiting from guaranteed returns backed by the government.
Among the projects expected to be included are the planned fertiliser plant and gas bottling facility, which form part of Guyana's broader economic expansion agenda.
The president also outlined several other initiatives aimed at strengthening ties with the diaspora. These include the development of a single mobile application to provide easier access to government services and the introduction of a national payment system before the end of the year.
President Ali also highlighted plans to build 40,000 homes over the next four years, as government continues to invest in housing, infrastructure and economic growth.
The new investment vehicle is expected to create more opportunities for Guyanese abroad, allowing them to play a direct role in the country's transformation while benefiting from its continued development.
