AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Canal Water Management: The Panama Canal Authority cut Neopanamax draft limits to 48 feet from Aug. 26, then 47.5 feet from Sept. 3, citing Gatun Lake declines tied to El Niño—while saying daily transits won’t change. Port Arbitration Shock: Hong Kong’s CK Hutchison has launched international arbitration against Panama, seeking more than US$1.5 billion after Panama seized Balboa and Cristóbal terminals in February, arguing treaty breaches and “destruction” of its investments. El Niño Economic Risk: A new El Niño outlook warns of droughts, floods, and extreme heat that could hit global agriculture, food and commodity prices, energy supplies, and inflation—raising the stakes for regional trade and logistics. Social Compliance in Panama: MINSA and MITRADEL trained employers on breastfeeding protections under Law 498, focusing on proper lactation rooms and workplace support. Public Finance Controls: Panama reported 80 audit findings tied to pandemic-era social project funds, citing alleged payroll and invoice irregularities. Security Update: A multinational operation intercepted a go-fast boat near the Panama-Costa Rica border, seizing 2,428 kg of cocaine and arresting three suspects.
