Au-delà du maintien de la stabilité de la livre – une question qui divise les experts –, Manssouri n’a pas réussi à promouvoir un plan viable de restructuration du secteur bancaire.

Mr. Mansouri could not have alone reformed the banking sector. He knew he won't be BDL governor for long so he was likely reluctant to continue on with the forensic audit, likely because the Amal Party that appointed him wants the kleptocracy they're part of, to evade any accountability. He was far better than Riad Salame, a low bar to clear considering that the former governor is accused of many financial crimes including embezzlement of $millions in public funds. As a maronite, I find it ludicrous that the position of governor is reserved for a maronite. In my opinion, it must rotated.
À mon avis, il aurait mérité d'être maintenu au poste de gouverneur de la banque centrale bien que ce poste doive être attribué à un maronite.
La plus grande "realisation" de M. Mansouri a ete de maintenir, par diverses maneuvres dilatoires, la scelerate circulaire BDL 151 qui fait obstacle a un accord avec le FMI.
Tout ce que Mansouri a fait a ete de conforter les restrictions illegales sur les depots pour complaire aux crapules bancaires. Un mafieux de plus, aux ordres du Capo di tutti Capi....Berri.
