On July 23, 2019, the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) officially launched the new debt portal. This portal is a core achievements in the ECCB's strategic plan. The portal is designed as an investor relations tool to increase awareness of the Regional Government Securities Market (RGSM); increase the market base for government securities for each of the eight Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU) member countries as well as improving the disclosure of information to investors and market participants.

The portal, which can be found at https://eccb-centralbank.org/debt , will be an invaluable information tool for various market participants such as investors who require data to inform their investing decisions, rating agencies who require macro-economic data in order to effectively rate countries or students requiring up to date research data.

The portal contains the most recently approved debt data and publications for each of the ECCU member countries. The highly stylized and easily navigable portal houses information on debt legislation, economic statistics and an auction calendar with upcoming auctions for the next 30 days.

The RGSM has allowed ECCU member governments to obtain financing for their annual budgets. This portal aims to increase the investor base available to the countries as well as inform investors of their investment choices. The data on the portal will be continuously updated by the member countries to allow users to have access to the most up to date debt and economic data.
