DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5e3707/libya_defence_and) has announced the addition of the "Libya Defence and Security Report Q1 2011" report to their offering.
The Libya Defence and Security Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, defence and security associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Libya's defence and security industry.
Libya's relative economic isolation buffered it from the worst of the global financial crisis, increasing its appeal to foreign investors looking for new growth opportunities. Our real GDP growth forecast for 2010 is 3.8% (year on year) y-o-y, largely due to an increase in oil prices. We expect GDP growth to reach 5.8% in 2015. As well as higher oil prices, continuing market liberalisation should help erode structural inefficiencies and foster job creation in the private sector.
Perceptions that Libya remains a pariah state continue to undermine its risk profile. Not only does this jeopardise foreign investment inflows, but it may also limit the ability of Libya's sovereign wealth fund to translate the country's burgeoning oil wealth into investments in more developed Western economies. There is no significant military threat or rivalry in the North African states (the Maghreb), despite some tensions existing between Libya, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco. These countries maintain military forces primarily to protect their borders, and only provide for token forces outside the region.
