Guyana’s economy was ranked among one of the five fastest growing economies in the world by Nasdaq, Bloomberg and the International Monetary Fund (IMF); at a time when the rest of the world’s economy is in decline. The country’s GDP for 2019 was US$4.28B, a 10.36% increase from 2018 and is expected to have a 26.2% growth in 2020 according to the IMF revised forecast. Exxon Mobil has projected to produce at least 750,000 barrels of oil per day by year 2025. Guyana is on the verge of becoming the largest oil producing country in the world on a per capita basis. Guyana is already preparing for this by putting in place the regulatory framework to manage the sector and the investments that would follow.
