Despite the challenges imposed by the global impact of COVID-19, Liberia remains optimistic that the global economy will recover quickly. A critical focus of economic activity in Liberia will be in encouraging productivity-driven growth and diversification under the inclusive growth development operations program supported by The World Bank Group.
With a newly enhanced strategy in place for supporting international business investment and business growth, Liberia National Investment Commision is ready to support you with your next investment project in Liberia.
The realization that Liberia’s economic vulnerability is largely due to its dependency on extractive sectors has led the government to target GDP growth excluding mining as a key performance indicator to avoid the traps of “growth without development.”
The Government of Liberia is now targeting micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) who are crucial to develop both internal and external trade and investment opportunities, as well as supporting economic diversification and growth within the Liberian economy.
Liberia seeks to strengthen investor confidence, showcase the opportunities available to foreign investors to do business in Liberia, and become a destination known for supporting the success of both foreign and domestic investors.
Liberia is a member of Regional and International Treaties intended to promote best practices in investments, these include: the World Trade Organization (WTO), African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), and the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes.
Liberia has been peaceful and politically stable for nearly two decades. There have been three (3) successive sets of transparent, free, and fair elections.
The laws of Liberia, particularly, the Investment Act of 2010, allow the repatriation of profits and dividends, net of taxes.
The country is undertaking various structural reforms toward accelerated, inclusive, and sustainable development. Infrastructure development, based on establishing special economic zones, is essential for industrialization aimed at attracting FDI across all sectors of the economy. Building young people’s skills is a priority to boost their employment.
