Among the many economic shocks that Lebanon has recently experienced is the dwindling of foreign aid, most drastically notable in the shuttering of USAID. Lebanese organizations and institutions which were previously sponsored by foreign assistance have had to make significant pivots—and not all have survived.
Executive sat down with Nicolas Farhat of Berytech to learn about how the institution is growing despite loss of certain funding streams, and how it is envisioning its innovative role in a shifting and still uncertain region: https://bit.ly/3I3ag9g

Municipal elections this year were shaped by the post-conflict environment, with turnout and results reflecting more apathy and support for familiar sectarian allegiances than a desire for change, despite the work of civil society organizations supporting and training new candidates. In the south, candidates and voters faced a uniquely precarious and dismal election atmosphere. Despite this, what positive movements are happening as a result of civic efforts?

Our 4-part “Lebanon and the IMF” story looked at the history, purpose, changing nature of the IMF along with its success rate in economies comparable to Lebanon. Today, Lebanon’s government must decide on how to go about their aim of “rescue and reform,” and whether an IMF deal would serve this aim or detract from it.

Lebanon has been flirting with an IMF deal to rescue it from economic turmoil since the Michel Aoun presidency, and now appears closer than ever to reaching an agreement.

Thomas Schellen explains that any potential borrower should consider the following questions:
“Does the lender understand my needs and abilities to pay my obligations? Could I be lured into a perennial debt trap? What are the main objectives of the organization that I am interacting with and the possible hidden agendas? With regard to Lebanon’s future relationship with the IMF – peer country experiences show that a long term exposure under recurrent agreements cannot be excluded – it is furthermore especially prudent to ask where the fund is heading politically, policy wise and in terms of geoeconomic direction.”

How does the IMF measure by these standards? Read more here: https://bit.ly/43rC6Dv
