Finance Minister Fayval Williams is urging private investors to engage the National Reconstruction and Resilience Authority (NaRRA), for investment opportunities relating to post Hurricane Melissa recovery efforts.

NaRRA is responsible for coordinating, fast-tracking and financing major reconstruction efforts, with US$6.7 billion allocated for resilient infrastructure and economic development.

The authority will play a central role in Jamaica’s recovery, ensuring that rebuilding efforts are strategic, efficient and growth-oriented.

Speaking on investment opportunities for 2026, Mrs. Williams said she would welcome private-sector involvement with NaRRA, to help bring major projects to life, stressing that these initiatives should contribute meaningfully to GDP growth.

She was speaking at the Mayberry Investments Limited Investor Forum.
