The International Finance Corporation is eyeing investment in Liberia in sectors including energy, mining and finance, its Chief Operating Officer, Rashad Kaldany, told Reuters. Kaldany said that the IFC, the lending arm of the World Bank, wanted to stimulate private sector investment in the impoverished West African country, struggling to recover from a devastating 1989-2003 civil war.
President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf said last month that only 2 percent of Liberia's roughly 4 million people have access to publicly provided electricity.
