    The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), in collaboration with Compete Caribbean, launched a follow-up survey in Barbados, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago. This follow-up survey was a complement to the Caribbean Enterprise and Indicator Survey 2011 (CES 2011) that was conducted as part of the Latin American and Caribbean Enterprise Surveys (LACES) implemented jointly by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Compete Caribbean, and the World Bank (WB). This survey on Finance and Gender Issues in the Caribbean (FINGEN) targeted about 400 respondents drawn from the recently completed LACES and aimed to provide feedback from enterprises that participated in the previous round of surveys in 2011 and to capture additional information on firm performance, finance, gender of ownership and management, use of productive development programs, and issues related to management style.

    The Database of Political Institutions presents institutional and electoral results data such as measures of checks and balances, tenure and stability of the government, identification of party affiliation and ideology, and fragmentation of opposition and government parties in the legislature, among others. The current version of the database, which is now hosted at the IDB, expands its coverage to about 180 countries for 40 years, 1975-2015.

Almost 3000 studies have used this database so far as a source of institutional and political data in their empirical analysis.
