We extend an invitation to all stakeholders to collaborate the development of the best financial literacy program for the region and to develop sensible legislation, one that best serves the interest of our Caribbean people.
Going back into History
CreditInfo’ was established in Barbados in 1993 as the Caribbean’s first regionally owned credit bureau providing services in credit management while being an advocate for the spread of financial literacy and debt recovery.
Our Background in a nutshell
Twenty-four years ago, CreditInfo was conceptualized after remedying a problem that companies were experiencing in Barbados relating to bounced cheques. To counteract this issue, a group of seven Barbadian companies started sharing the names of those who were causing the problems. Due to the success of this initiative the concept was broadened and ultimately resulted in the incorporation of CreditInfo in November 1993 by Mr. Grady Clarke, founder of the first privately owned credit bureau operating in Barbados.
Our Great Acheivements
On October 14, 2004, the CreditInfo was incorporated in St. Lucia under the International Companies Act. The credit bureau was a joint venture with the St. Lucia Chamber of Commerce Industry and Agriculture, which is St. Lucia’s largest private sector representative organization. The Dominica operations were officially opened by the Acting Prime Minister, The Honourable Ambrose George in July 2005. Operations were greatly assisted by the Dominica Cooperatives League, which is the representative body of the credit unions in Dominica. The Canadian Investment Development Agency (CIDA) and the International Financial Corporation (IFC) have joined us in promoting financial literacy in the region.
