Top Bank in the Middle East
My aim is to increase our equity, which has doubled since 2005. Also, I would like to double our assets and be a leader in the strategic business lines we have targeted.
Lebanon Distribution: TransMed
The distribution sector in Lebanon cant think of itself as being a simple supply operation, it has to be a full partner in this equation and fully committed and dedicated to provide services at a competitive rate in order to enhance the value equation for the product.
Packaging in Lebanon
We are seeking to increase our exports and to increase our sales by 50% in the upcoming years. We think we have a strong base in the paper and packaging industry in Lebanon and we look forward to expanding in the region and collaborating with other regional players in paper and packaging industry.
Lebanon Real Estate: Plus Properties
The Lebanon real estate sector was not affected and there is a real demand in Lebanon real estate. UAE is also productive for the real estate business and we were involved there before we were even involved in Lebanon. When the crisis started Dubai was hurt much more than other countries in the real estate market due to speculation instead of investment.
Lebanon Education: Beirut Arab University
Beirut Arab University is well established in the forty school market and most schools aren’t as old as ours. Beirut Arab University developed our curriculum every two or three years to match the requirement of the market to enable students to enter the job market with ease as well. Further, I think it might be time to open another campus in Beirut. I believe Beirut Arab University is doing quite well.

Beirut Port: IPM Ports Management
The model that currently exists for Beirut port is unique in Lebanon but not in the world. Beirut port, is a model where the port is not privatized but it is owned and built by the government. Thus, at Beirut port the risk of the infrastructure and superstructure is the government’s risk. We are the managers of the assets but we are not paid, a flat fee but we share revenue. Every dollar Beirut port gets we get 40 cents so it provides us with incentive to attract business, do the work more efficiently, and provide excellent customer service at Beirut Port.
Internet Lebanon
The prospects for Lebanon ICT development and broadband development will remain good in Lebanon. Over the past 4-5 years we have seen growth in Lebanon ICT sector of around 15-20% and this has been restricted by the unavailability of the basic ingredients for internet-international capacity and availability of access lines in Lebanon ICT sector. If these restrictions were moved, these ingredients present, and reform took place, we could easily see 40-50% growth in the telecom sector .
