The 2021-2025 Country Strategy will support restoring macroeconomic sustainability, promoting private sector competitiveness, and improving basic services and social protection. Economic stabilization requires improving public expenditure management and strengthening public administration while protecting the social safety net. The longer-term priorities focus on private sector development, digitalization, financial inclusion, and strengthening social protection.

Suriname is one of the founding member countries of the IDB. Like all the shareholders, Suriname appoints a Governor, who represents the country on the Board of Governors.
