The Governor of Libya's Central Bank (CBL), Saddek Ekaber, and the American Chamber of Commerce group met Thursday via video conference to discuss encouraging American companies to invest in Libya.

"The meeting reviewed the CBL's efforts to ensure economic and financial stability and to preserve the financial sustainability of the state in light of the crises the country has gone through," the bank said.

The participants exchanged notes on developing openness and transparency and supporting the efforts of the National Oil Corporation to raise production and export rates.

Discussions also dealt with the importance of promoting the private sector's role in contributing to the national economy in partnership with foreign companies to transfer knowledge and employ it in Libya.
