The Budget statement was presented by the Honourable Minister of Finance Davendranath Tancoo on Monday 13th October, 2025. This was Minister Tancoo’s maiden budget presentation and was highly anticipated, not only it being the first of the new Government, but it also comes at a time when there is significant uncertainty not only in Trinidad and Tobago but also on the world stage. Trinidad and Tobago’s economy is directly impacted on world events.
