• The provision of immediate response mechanisms
for investment facilitation, branded investment packages

Overall, the Agency views its relationship with regional BSOs as
reciprocal. As Caribbean Export continues to undertake regional
private sector development, the role of BSOs will continue to be
central to not only the successful delivery of programmes, but
also the integration of regional SMEs into the global economy.
