Jamaicans residing abroad as well as those who have returned home play a very important role in Jamaica's economy. It was with this in mind, that the Corporation, as part of its public education programme, invited returning residents from all over the island to participate in a special seminar entitled " Protecting Your Money" . They were informed not only of deposit insurance issues but also about the regulation of banks and other financial institutions and some of the new measures put in place by the Government to ensure sounder banking practices
