Premier and Minister of Finance David Burt met with Dr. DeLisle Worrell, the past Governor of the Central Bank of Barbados who recently joined the Bermuda Financial Policy Council.
Premier Burt tweeted the photos below, saying: “Welcomed Dr. DeLisle Worrell, past Governor of the Central Bank of Barbados to the Cabinet Office this afternoon. Dr. Worrell has joined me and the members of the Bermuda Financial Policy Council to ensure Bermuda’s financial stability as we grow the economy.”
Last month Premier Burt announced that Dr. Worrell joined the Financial Policy Council.
“Dr. Worrell founded the Research Department of the Central Bank of Barbados in 1973, and served with the Bank until 1998, by which time he was Deputy Governor with responsibilities for research, management information systems and banking supervision,” the Ministry said at that time.
“He later served as Governor of the Bank from 2009 to November 2017. His areas of expertise include economic modelling and forecasting; financial risk analysis and stress testing; exchange rates and currency unions; monetary, fiscal and exchange rate policies; competitiveness; and, pricing and price formation.”
