BY RAYLEEN WANJIMAN

BSP Financial Group says growing demand for agricultural commodities, fisheries, tourism, and major energy and mineral resource projects is continuing to support economic growth across Papua New Guinea and the Pacific region.

Speaking at the BSP Financial Group Annual General Meeting 2026 in Port Moresby recently BSP Chief Executive Officer Mark Robinson said the region continues to present strong opportunities for economic and market expansion.

Mr Robinson says a young and growing population is contributing to growth, while digital banking and financial inclusion are helping bring more people into the financial system.

He says BSP is continuing to invest in technology and banking services to support businesses, communities and economic development across the Pacific.

Mr Robinson says these sectors remain key drivers of growth for BSP, as the bank works to expand services, strengthen customer access and support long-term development in the region.
