Willemstad – The Board financial supervision for Curaçao and Sint Maarten (College financieel toezicht Curaçao and Sint Maarten – Cft) had a confidential consultation with the financial commission of the Curaçao Parliament on September 4th. Several statements about this consultation have been published since that date. This is not in line with the private nature of this consultation. It is important to exchange ideas in confidence, without political or publicity considerations playing a role. After all, the Cft is an independent advisor of the government entities of Curaçao, including the Parliament, and the Cft plays no political role whatsoever. The Cft is confident that future consultation with the Parliament will be held in total confidence.
