The Board of Directors of the Libya Africa Investment Portfolio (LAIP) held its second meeting of 2026 on Wednesday, 24 June, at LAIP\u2019s headquarters in Tripoli, reviewing a number of key files related to the performance, governance and future direction of the organisation and its subsidiaries.<\/p>\n
During the meeting, the Board reviewed correspondence from the Libyan Investment Authority (LIA) relating to the launch of a comprehensive strategic assessment project aimed at reassessing all companies, portfolios and investment funds affiliated with the LIA across various countries around the world. The project is being undertaken in cooperation with one of the Big Four global audit and accounting firms.<\/p>\n
The Board affirmed LAIP\u2019s full support for the initiative and directed that its subsidiaries be asked to prepare integrated investment plans based on accurate and up-to-date financial data. It also stressed the need to prepare qualified internal teams capable of engaging effectively with the assessment process and helping ensure that the project achieves its intended objectives.<\/p>\n
The Board noted that the initiative aligns with LAIP\u2019s wider efforts to strengthen the periodic and systematic evaluation of its investments, improve oversight and support more effective decision-making across its portfolio.<\/p>\n
The Board also approved amendments to LAIP\u2019s operational and investment budgets, following a submission by the executive management in response to a request made by the Board at its first meeting of the year.<\/p>\n
As part of its ongoing review of subsidiary performance, the Board considered a memorandum from the executive management concerning two non-operational companies affiliated with LAIP. It approved referring a proposal to liquidate the two companies and appoint liquidators to LAIP\u2019s General Assembly, which is scheduled to meet in mid-July, for consideration and the necessary authorisation.<\/p>\n
The move forms part of LAIP\u2019s broader efforts to develop existing investments, pursue new opportunities and address challenged assets through appropriate mechanisms tailored to each case.<\/p>\n
The meeting underscored the Board\u2019s continued focus on strengthening LAIP\u2019s performance, improving the efficiency of its investments, advancing its strategic objectives and reinforcing the principles of governance and sound management.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
