The proposed Barbados Optional Savings Scheme (BOSS) Plus investment bonds could be rolled out by the end of August with a special configuration that officials hope will help to boost the appetite of investors for Government securities.Governor of the Central Bank of Barbados Cleviston Haynes made this disclosure while responding to questions from reporters during his half-year economic review and outlook briefing at the Central Bank on Wednesday.“One of the things we have to be able to do,” he said, “is to understand what the market appetite is for the bonds. So we will probably come with different structures, you know, should we have something shorter, should we have something longer? We have to find the right structure. We are hopeful that this BOSS Plus instrument will meet the needs of the public looking for investments.
