Why Liberia?

We expect private investors to help open a window of opportunity in Liberia. The country is just emerging from a brutal civil war and attracting investment will be a gradual and arduous task. With the commitment of a democratically elected, focused, principled and dedicated government now in place, the investment climate will gradually become more conducive and professional investors and investment managers will become more willing to consider Liberia as an investment destination.

The driving force at this critical time for the country is the administration of President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, which has evidenced a strong commitment to the rule of law and governance and has begun implementation of economic policies conducive to market forces and competition.

As Liberia moves toward closing the gap with an improving regional and global economy and given the country’s relatively weak institutions, the road ahead can be expected to be long, but the gaps make the opportunities enormous. We believe that well-managed businesses in high potential niches can be positioned to achieve exceptional results. The keys to successful investment will be to manage risk properly; to craft strategies specifically for this market; and to transfer, through best global practices and proper timing, practical adaptation and innovative skills.
