The Lebanese economy has witnessed unprecedented growth levels over the last 2 years, making Lebanon one of the region's top performers in terms of economic growth. Despite the worldwide financial crisis and the resulting reduction in liquidity in European and American markets, the increased wealth in the region has opened a new era of opportunities to investments in Lebanon and particularly to greenfield investments. Lebanon was able to attract 7.5% of the total share of FDI inflows to the region in 2010 due to a series of comparative advantages.

IDAL in particular, managed to increase the amount of investments it mediated from previous year's level, supported by incentives provided through Investment Law No.360.

With Government and national support, IDAL is positioned at the service of all potential investors with the intention of diminishing their strenuous obstacles, and so as to set forward Investment Law No.360, in order to be able to grant fee waivers and tax exemptions, in addition to a wide array of solution-oriented investment facilitation and aftercare services.

Our website will highlight these services and investment incentives and will bring into focus IDAL's achievements in promoting and facilitating investments to Lebanon and promoting the export of specific industries. Our website will also include information on the promotional programs implemented by IDAL to support the export of agricultural and agro-industrial products.

Furthermore, for any additional information or support, IDAL's staff will be more than eager to respond to all enquiries.
