Arthur, Owen (Seymour) (1949– )

Barbadian centre-left politician, prime minister from 1994. In 1993 he succeeded Henry Forde as leader of the Barbados Labour Party (BLP) and led the party to a landslide victory in September 1994, at a time of economic difficulties. With his appointment as prime minister, he also received the finance, economic affairs, and civil service portfolios.

Arthur studied economics at the University of the West Indies, and worked in Jamaica as an economic planner. In the early 1980s he held junior positions in the BLP government of Tom Adams.
