The world’s fastest growing economy.

Although its population is small, it's the world’s fastest growing economy – thanks to the discovery of vast amounts of offshore oil and gas. But how will Guyana’s newly found wealth be distributed – and who will feel its benefits?
Jonny Dymond and a panel of political leaders and businesspeople face tough questions from a lively audience in the country’s capital, Georgetown.
The Panel:
Ashni Singh: Minister of Finance for the governing PPP/C Party
Tabitha Sarabo-Halley: Opposition MP, WIN party
Ayodele Dalgety-Dean: Chair of SISPRO – a women led energy company
Clinton Urling: Secretary of the Private Sector commission of Guyana

Producer: Helen Towner
