SURINAME 1. General Trends Suriname's Economy Contracted By

Economic Survey of Latin America and the Caribbean ▪ 2016 1 SURINAME 1. General trends Suriname’s economy contracted by an estimated 2% in 2015, as falling oil and gold prices took their toll on the real, fiscal and monetary sectors of the economy. This represented a major turnaround from the growth of 2.8% in 2013 and 1.8% in 2014. In addition to lower prices for Suriname’s commodities, the Suralco alumina refinery was shut down in late 2015, when parent company Alcoa decided to streamline its business. As a result, exports and foreign-exchange earnings fell steeply last year. International reserves decreased by almost half in 2015. The central bank, finding it increasingly difficult to maintain the United States currency peg, devalued the Surinamese dollar (Sr$) by 20.5% in November 2015. This was followed by foreign-currency auctions in March 2016 and the introduction of a freely floating exchange-rate regime in May 2016. As a result, the exchange rate rose from 3.35 Surinamese dollars (Sr$) per United States dollar (US$) in early November 2015 to over Sr$ 6 per US$ 1 in May 2016. In April 2016 Suriname reached a staff-level agreement with the IMF for balance-of- payments support in the amount of US$ 478 million over two years. The agreement comes with a raft of structural reforms aimed at increasing government revenues and improving fiscal and monetary policy frameworks. The fiscal deficit expanded in 2015, as the government faced lower commodity-related revenues and higher spending in the lead-up to the May 2015 general election.
Investment Guide

SURINAME INVESTMENT GUIDE Where Business equals Quality of Life INVESTMENT GUIDE SURINAME Where Business equals Quality of Life INVESTMENT GUIDE SURINAME Where Business equals Quality of Life PREFACE In the last number of years, Suriname made significant steps to integrate its economy into the globalizing world economy. By becoming a member of the Caribbean Community in 1995, a process started which included regulatory reforms and trade liberalization with the purpose of modernizing the economy and cutting red tape. In 2004, the country was able to reach a positive trade balance. For decades, the US and The Netherlands were significant trading partners of Suriname. Regional integration is an important policy aspect of the current Government which took office in August of 2010. By following a conscious strategy of integrating into non traditional markets and participating in the South American integration process, the country is opening doors to investors who will see opportunities in mining, a wide range of services, agriculture, cultural diversity, communications and value added products. By deepening the relationship with traditional trading partners with investment modalities and implementing a South South strategy with nontraditional partners, the economy of Suriname is being transformed into an emerging market. Suriname is a unique and safe place with the natural resources and geological characteristics of South America, the warmth of the Caribbean, a cultural diversity found nowhere else, and a constantly improving investment and business climate. The Government makes serious effort to make Suriname a better place do to business and will treat all investors alike, according to the Most Favorite Nation principles.

Peer-Reviewed Article

International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition Research Research The impact of the Devaluation of the Surinamese Dollar (2015 – 2016) on Food Intake in Suriname Cheuk-A-Lam Gerani1*, D'Haese Marijke1, Van Camp John1 1Ghent University, Faculty of Bioscience Engineering, Coupure Links 653, 9000 Gent, Belgium Corresponding Author: Cheuk – A – Lam Gerani, Ghent University, Faculty of Bioscience Engineering, Coupure Links 653, 9000 Gent, Belgium Received date: July 27, 2019; Accepted date: October 16, 2019; Published date: October 18, 2019 DOI: https://doi.org/10.31546/IJFSNR.1006 Abstract Objective: A currency devaluation influences food prices and populations’ diet, especially in developing countries and within poorer households, resulting in the consumption of cheaper, and therefore often lower quality diets. Reduced consumption of high-quality foods restrains the protective health benefits of these foods towards the incidence of NCDs, and increases the risk of micro- and macronutrient deficiencies among populations that are already subject to food and nutrition insecurity. Despite global evidence of higher food prices directly affecting populations’ health status, and as such possibly jeopardizing economic performance and rural development, there has been no research conducted on the effect of rising food prices on food intake in Suriname yet. As such, the objective of this study was to assemble primary food consumption data, with respect to pre-and post-devaluation food intake patterns of Surinamese households. This with the goal to report changes in post-devaluation dietary intake, in order to better comprehend the future implications for health, facilitating evidence-based policy development and nutrition intervention planning. Results: Higher food prices resulted in low, - middle - and high-income groups increasing the expenditures on food (p <0.01).
