Sierra Leone Private Investment and Financial Sector Development

This book provides a detailed overview and analysis of key macroeconomics variables in Sierra Leone from 1980 to 2015. Like Sierra Leone and Ghana many nations depend primarily on taxation as a means of galvanizing the required resources needed to meet public expenditure requirements. As a result it is critical to study how fiscal variables change and how private investment can improve life for everyone. Dr. Ezekiel K. Duramany-Lakkoh dean of the faculty at University of Sierra Leone explores Sierra Leone's fiscal policy and how it's changed over time in this academic work. Topics include: • economic growth beginning in 2010; • social and economic reform programs; • monetary policy and its effect on inflation; • external and domestic debt management. The author also highlights how government spending has influenced private investment at home and abroad-as well as how a re-established political order has contributed to impressive growth. Whether you do business in Sierra Leone want to do business there have a connection to the country or are a citizen or native you'll find valuable insights in this book.
