Services

As a country with few natural resources, Lebanon has the chance to have a population and an economy firmly oriented towards the services’ sector which employs 40% of the total active population, representing almost the double employment rates of the commercial sector, the second largest source of employment in the country.

Strong traditional services are characteristic of this sector. The leading field is banking service that boasts a very precise legislation. The full range of banking services is available in establishments that succeeded in drawing foreign capital.

Trading services are also very important, Lebanese companies boast exclusive rights of distribution from international brands that usually expand from national to regional rights. This is quite understandable: Lebanese expatriates working in the region often hold posts of great responsibility, facilitating the expansion on new markets for Lebanese exclusive agents.

The quality of higher education is also extremely important in a service -oriented economy, and the education policy has succeeded in its task to provide companies with effective young executives and well trained professionals.

In 2002 Lebanon signed the Euromed agreement that aimed at creating a free trade zone between all the countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea and the European Union.
This is expected to open a market of over 300 million consumers to Lebanese companies.

Although it is a hazardous commitment for some economic sectors, it represents tremendous opportunity for the service sector in Lebanon.
