ABOUT THE PSC
The Private Sector Commission of Guyana Limited was established in 1992 by five private sector associations with the aim of bringing together all private sector bodies, small business organisations and large corporate organisations within the purview of one integrated national body. The PSC is managed by an Executive Management Committee and is governed by a Council consisting of duly elected representatives of member organisations and from corporate members. The PSC Secretariat is headed by th e Executive Director who coordinates the day to day activities of the PSC. A Technical Services Unit supported by CIDA was created to provide technical support to the PSC in its advocacy to improve the enabling environment for business in Guyana and to support private sector development. The PSC is engaged in active partnership with the Government of Guyana in the development and implementation of the National Competitiveness Secretariat.
