GEORGETOWN, Guyana (AP) — Guyana is rushing a high-level delegation to an upcoming international summit in Nicaragua to ask for more time to tighten financial regulations in the South American country.

Saturday's announcement comes after opposition leaders in Guyana said they would not vote for a crucial anti-money laundering bill until more safeguards against corruption are added.

The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development has threatened to blacklist Guyana if the bill is not approved.

The Caribbean Financial Action Task Force summit in Nicaragua is scheduled to start Monday.
