NIC Executive Director George Wisner told the Ministry of Information regular press briefing Tuesday in Monrovia that the country is also prepared to ensure the protection of foreign direct investments to attain mutual goals.
He indicated that the September 15 investment forum on Liberia held in the U.S. provided an opportunity to showcase the country’s investment environment and also reassure the investment community that the micro-economic fundamentals of the state remain intact.
He stressed the country’s commitment to also ensure the protection of foreign capital in support of the investment community.
According to Wisner, the recent Investment Forum on Liberia held in New York will make immediate and long-term impact on the country’s economy.
Wisner praised Vice President Joseph N. Boakai for “perfectly” making Liberia’s case amid the drawdown of the United Nations Mission and the 2017 General and Presidential elections.
The NIC Executive Director also applauded the number of Liberian businesses that attended the forum, describing the turnout as the highest ever at an international forum of investors on Liberia.
