DMS-Frontier Markets: Lebanon's Hopeful Future
August 22, 2016--Preview:
All we ever get to read about Lebanon has to do with death and destruction. First it was the civil war that ended in 1990 and devastated the country, and now even though peace is within its borders. the country has to contend with the conflict in Syria.
The byproduct of that war has been a massive influx of refugees which has placed a great strain on Lebanon's economy. GDP growth, as can be expected, has plunged from 10% in 2008 to about 1% year over year in 2015. I imagine it will keep its downward trajectory as long as the Syrian war continues.
