To advance the development of the economies and peoples of the entire Caribbean region, educational programmes must be expanded and enriched wherever possible. To that end, FirstCaribbean has cultivated education parnerships throughout the Caribbean through Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) to positively contribute to the sustained growth and development of a vibrant, efficient and effective banking and financial services sector in the region. This stimulates and supports business development, inter-regional and international trade and better positions our Caribbean community to compete in a global market.
At present FirstCaribbean has MOUs with the following organisations:
