The Bottom 50

Being a CEO is never easy. Beyond the need to motivate and lead your team effectively, there is also the added concern that should the business fail to perform, you are held accountable. However, too often CEOs are not recognized for the work they do. With that in mind, the Businessuite Magazine family presents the Top 100 CEOs for the Caribbean for 2015.

This ranking represents the best leaders who have delivered solid results and kept businesses in the Caribbean region growing. They are also recognized for being instrumental in the growth of Caribbean companies, as well as for “creating jobs, maintaining profitability for their shareholders, applying corporate governance and transforming” the region.

To ensure we placed them all on the same base, all figures were converted to US$ based on the exchange rates for the respective central banks as at December 31st 2014.

Qualifiers for the 2015 Ranking of the Top 100 Caribbean CEOs were first determined using a minimum of US$500,000 in profits for the year in review. Based on this ranking, only 67 of the 100 companies qualified.

The group was further ranked based on their % growth in after tax profits 2014 over 2013. Of the 100, only 30 qualified based on this ranking.

Without further ado, we present the Bottom 50 of the Top 100 CEOs for the Caribbean for 2015.

The following table represents those who did not qualify in either category:
