While these circumstances are trying, they have highlighted the need to strengthen the…

Trinidad and Tobago has been severely affected by the drop in oil and gas prices, as well as a decline in production of both commodities. Although the tax incentives provided to energy projects in recent years are expected to bring about significant economic returns in the near future, these have led to minimal taxes collected from oil companies in 2016. Exploration and drilling activities currently…

In September 2014 the 2014/15 national budget of Trinidad and Tobago was predicted to be TT$60.35bn ($9.3bn) for the fiscal year.
