Business environment in Suriname

Suriname's economy is reliant on gold, bauxite mining, and oil and gas. The extractive industry represents over 80% of total exports. Aside from natural resources, Suriname has a large agricultural sector that exports rice, bananas, citrus, sugar cane, palm oil and other products. The government, led by Chan Santokhi, is making efforts to strengthen the business climate as offshore oil development gathers pace.
