#BTColumn – An appreciation of Sir Courtney Article by April 3, 2021 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed by this author are their own and do not represent the official position of the Barbados TODAY Inc. by Mrs. Ram Mirchandani BJH The architect of the Central Bank of Barbados has passed away and left his persons who loved him behind. He was the first governor and longest – serving governor of the Central Bank of Barbados. He reorganised the finances of the country and advised the prime ministers of Barbados and the Caribbean in financial matters. A truly brilliant person and no colour or greed could match his brain. A very patient man who was cool and composed at all times. Took care of the staff as he was their father and he chose his committed members.
