Completing his decade-long tenure at the helm of the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), President Dr William Warren Smith said farewell to member countries and staff at a special Board of Directors meeting, followed by a staff function.
During Smith’s period in office from May 1, 2011 to April 30, 2021, he oversaw the response to two global crises that heavily impacted the Caribbean Region – the aftermath of the 2008 global financial crisis at the beginning of his first term and the Covid-19 pandemic at the end of his second. In between, CDB tackled a series of increasingly devastating storms associated with climate change which hit Borrowing Member Countries (BMCs).
