Dear Editor,As Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh presented the 2026 National Budget at the Arthur Chung Conference Centre, the numbers confirmed a high-stakes shift in Guyana’s economic destiny. The Withdrawal Rule Breakdown:• First US$1 Billion: 100% can be withdrawn. • Second US$1 Billion: 95% can be withdrawn (up from earlier, more restrictive limits). • Third US$1 Billion: 90% can be withdrawn. The 2026 Budget confirms that the “Norway Model” of long-term saving has been officially traded for a “Singapore Model” of hyper-speed development.
