Following its contraction in 2005, the Guyana economy achieved significant growth (4.7%), driven mainly by the construction and agriculture sectors. Gasoline subsidies helped to curb inflation. Various infrastructure works, notably those undertaken in preparation for the Cricket World Cup, resulted in some level of fiscal expansion, although fiscal savings were also achieved thanks to the Multilateral Debt Relief Initiative (MDRI).
