Last update: an hour ago

Cybersecurity Warning: A digital forensics expert told Barbados youth and vulnerable groups that clicking unverified links on phones can expose malware that may spread to home networks, putting banking and social media accounts at risk. Electricity Costs Challenge: Attorney Tricia Watson says she will challenge the Fair Trading Commission’s approval allowing Barbados Light & Power to recover costs tied to synchronous condensers, warning it sets a precedent for ratepayers. Remittances Meets Cricket: Massy Finance Remittances signed a three-year CPL sponsorship, aiming to connect MoneyGram customers with match promotions and Caribbean community engagement. Immigration Ruling: A US judge struck down Trump’s immigrant visa suspension affecting nationals from 75 countries, including several Caribbean states; the decision applies to permanent residency visas. Regional Growth Outlook: ECLAC forecasts Caribbean growth at 5.6% in 2026 and 7.9% in 2027, but warns the region slows sharply without Guyana. MSME Digital Push: CDB and the Small Business Association of Barbados launched a regional initiative to help at least 150 MSMEs adopt digital tools and boost competitiveness. Workforce & Skills: Barbados Vocational Training Board reports strong demand for culinary training and capacity pressure in construction gateway programmes. Border Data Plan: Senator Ryan Forde backed a passenger data bill and urged faster rollout of a real-time dashboard to strengthen security and improve tourism and investment decisions. Sports Business Angle: CPL action continues with Barbados Tridents’ unbeaten run and Matthew Forde’s standout five-wicket haul for Saint Lucia Kings.
