A local financial consultant has advised Dominicans who may be facing financial difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic to speak directly with their lenders to ease their financial burdens. Luana Laurent of Finance Focus says the COVID-19 pandemic may be causing anxiety among citizens, and some may have already lost their jobs.

It was the year 2007, my first Christmas as an employed millennial. Do you know what I thought that meant? A “FAT” bank account and access to Christmas sales. Little did I know that the word “FAT” was relative and that the result of Christmas sales would be Sprite soda and crackers lunches in the month of January.

Luana, on her quest to promote financial literacy in Dominica Luana Laurent is on a mission to change the way Dominicans handle their money. The young CEO and Director of her company, Finance Focus Consultancy, is providing an educational platform that aims to share financial information and improve financial literacy among the masses.

Luana’s Story I remember that in my early 20’s, I wanted to look good as it made me feel good. Back then, I was young, healthy, and I was spending MY money. How many of us remember those days? I’m not sure if most of us were like me for this part, but as time passed, I struggled with living my best life and balancing my financial commitments. And guess what, by 21, I, already had a student loan.
