The Caribbean Region Quarterly Bulletin discusses recent economic developments in the 6 IDB-member Caribbean countries, as well as the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS). Being the first Quarterly Bulletin in 2015, this issue departs from its usual format of recent developments and analytical reports on specific topics for each country. Instead, we take a step back and look at the major developments in the world economy and the Caribbean in 2014. In addition, we explore possible major developments in the world economy and how they might impact the Caribbean in 2015.
