Investing In Lebanon
LEBANON :
For centuries Lebanon always imposed itself as a must passage for the exchange
of culture and trade between Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Uniquely
situated Lebanon’s geographical location, population’s intelligence and
motivation paved the path for it to conquer vast markets spread all over the
world. At the same time, an impressive ‘Diaspora’ -strongly linked to the
motherland- planted itself in different continents. Such accomplishments were
never integrated, or motivated and/or supported by military power or means, but
by sheer intelligence and a very strong, collective, will power. Very few
countries, down history’s memory-lane can claim such an honor.
Logically,
after the end of the Lebanese Civil war the rush to invest in Lebanon was
basically concentrated in the capital Beirut. The first fifteen
years were marked by speculative and short-term acts : Hit and run
investment and profit-taking, as I name it.
Starting
(2006) and in a chaotic world plagued by economic uncertainty and opposing
political and business currents storming the front doors of all countries; in
this context, Lebanon was able to show an impressive, and continued internal
political, economic, security and monetary stability, growth and excellent
investment opportunities. Lebanon’s wealth is not concentrated in God made “oil
wells” but a man-made Ocean of mature Business-sense, culture, knowledge,
intelligence and a breath taking nature.
Lebanon’s
secret is : Rebirth of strength from weakness.
A
land with a glorious past and a very promising future.
Lebanon is the solid, profitable & long-term secure investment haven in the
Middle East.
