Real estate and infrastructural development financier MoneyMasters Limited has called for g overnment to pump greater levels of investment in the development of public infrastructure across the island, which it says could help to drive increased economic activities across cities.

President of MoneyMasters Claudette Crooks, speaking at a quarterly investment forum held by the company last week, said that while there have been significant improvements in public infrastructure, there is much more that needs to be done with greater focus in some areas.

 

“MoneyMasters certainly recognises that infrastructural planning in Jamaica can be improved. That problem was partially addressed with the construction of the major highways and road widening projects. We still have that significant problem at the macro level when it comes to water and sewage infrastructure. If Jamaica is to become a First World country, we have to put in the infrastructure which will in turn allow for greater capital investment and greater efficiency,” she said.
