AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Ferry & Transport: Questions are still swirling around Montserrat’s ferry future as private operators move ahead while the Government of Montserrat completes its long-awaited tender; officials say the island is not yet running or managing a ferry service and the recent vessel visit was a private initiative, not a government-backed operation. Agri & Food Security: Montserrat farmer Shanyon McPherson received the island’s inaugural Governor’s Award for her backyard-to-business farming growth and contributions to local agriculture, food security, and community development. Green Entrepreneurship: Montserrat entrepreneurs can now apply for a four-month Regional Green Business Incubator starting July 2026, offering mentorship, business planning support, and regional networks, with a focus on sustainable growth for women and youth. Services Sector Skills: The OECS-backed Specialized Services Sector Training Programme (June 29–July 2) is set to strengthen trade officials and policymakers’ knowledge and negotiating skills across member states, including Montserrat. Aviation Costs & Connectivity: EU passenger rights reforms are drawing sharp pushback from regional airlines, with Montserrat’s Barriga warning the deal adds obligations and costs without fixing delay causes—raising concerns for peripheral connectivity. Local Industry Context: A separate report flags mounting pressure on Europe’s regional carriers from regulation, overheads, jet fuel, and financing risks—factors that can ripple into service reliability.
