During the past fifty years, Lebanon, the Arab region and the whole world witnessed a series of great crises, with a military, a security, a political, a financial or an economic character.

You will find below a quick reminder of the major events and crises Lebanon has witnessed since the beginning of the sixties of the past century and those the Association of Banks in Lebanon and the banking sector in Lebanon were confronted with, with wisdom, shrewdness, solidarity, vision and clear-sightedness, in cooperation and coordination with the concerned official authorities, in order to preserve the rights of shareholders and investors in the present sector, on the one hand, and the rights of the depositors and the national economic interests, on the other hand.
