The Libyan Investment Authority (LIA) has demonstrated considerable progress in its 2025 annual evaluation within the “GSR Governance, Sustainability, and Resilience Scoreboard.” This comprehensive scoreboard, a publication of Global SWF, an organisation that analyses the governance, sustainability, and resilience efforts of leading sovereign investors worldwide, serves to appraise the endeavours of state-owned investment funds concerning governance, sustainability, and resilience.

The LIA attained a noteworthy overall score of 84%, representing a substantial 32% growth rate compared to the preceding year. As per the report released by Global SWF earlier this July, this figure denotes the highest growth rate among all global sovereign wealth funds for 2025.

This outcome underscores the LIA’s prominent standing at both regional and continental levels. It secured the third position in the Arab world and second in Africa within the GSR index. This index meticulously assesses funds based upon a multitude of criteria, encompassing the clarity of their strategic vision, governance frameworks, financial disclosure, investment policies, adherence to sustainability standards, and the efficacy of their risk management.

This advancement signifies a continuation of the LIA’s successful practices adopted over recent years. These practices have encompassed the reinforcement of governance principles, the enhancement of disclosure protocols, and the improvement of the our capacity to adapt to the rapid transformations within the global investment landscape. Remarkably, the LIA augmented its evaluation from a mere 4% to 84% over a mere six years, thereby reflecting a profound transformation propelled by a long-term vision and rigorously designed operational frameworks.

This accomplishment is situated within the context of our ongoing implementation of its 2025–2027 strategy, which places the enhancement of transparency, the consolidation of robust governance, and unwavering adherence to international best practices at the very core of its strategic priorities.
