Politically-exposed persons (PEPs)
Our database contains 122 entities identified as PEPs connected with Guyana.
We keep track both if political positions and the individuals who occupy those positions over time. Of course, a person can hold a position for multiple terms, and multiple people can occupy the same position at the same time (e.g. members of parliament).
