MARKETING ECONOMIC STRENGTHS

Lebanon¡¯s strength lies in its innovative, skilled, and educated population which has a reputation for being business professionals. Increased political stability has inspired economic confidence in the country, not only by Lebanese nationals, but by international investors as well.

With sustained stability, efforts to attract foreign capital in order to finance the numerous reconstruction projects should continue, and the attraction of foreign investment will help in selling further government and banking bond issues. The renewal of the banking system, designated by investment bankers as the ¡°jewel of Lebanon¡¯s economy,¡± should help in financing the great reconstruction efforts that are needed to rebuild Lebanon¡¯s strife-torn society. The rebuilding of the country¡¯s infrastructure will in turn lead to a rapid recovery of the tourism, construction, and real estate sectors.
