Summary

A technical assistance (TA) mission on external sector statistics (ESS) was conducted to the Statistics Department (SD) of Montserrat during October 14-25, 2024, as part of the Caribbean Regional Technical Assistance Centre (CARTAC) work program on ESS. The mission focused on assisting the SD in extrapolating the results of the low-season Visitor Expenditure Survey (VES) conducted by the SD and the Montserrat Tourism Division (MTD) to enhance estimates of travel exports for the balance of payments (BOP). The mission also provided support to improve statistics on trade in goods and international cooperation. In addition, the revised 2023 BOP (for dissemination in December 2024) was reviewed.
