A weak economy and subdued inflationary pressure will enable the CBCS to keep monetary policy loose. However, monetary transmission mechanisms are weak, and policy rate decisions have only a limited effect on economic performance. Despite a decision in 2011 by the Staten to dissolve the CBCS and establish a central bank solely for Curaçao, reform of the currency union and the creation of a central bank that is independent from Sint Maarten will remain medium-term goals; in view of more pressing issues, they are unlikely to be priorities for the new government. On the banking side, the IMF has urged both islands to strengthen financial supervision and transparency, as well as to share crossborder tax information, given the islands' status as regional financial centres. This will help to address reputational concerns stemming from high levels of fraud, tax evasion and money laundering.
