The Bank stated that the meeting addressed the Central Bank of Libya's efforts to unify public spending, improve methods for combating money laundering and terrorist financing, strengthen compliance, governance, and oversight systems within the banking sector, and foster cooperation and coordination with relevant national and international bodies. These efforts aim to enhance the integrity and transparency of Libya's financial and banking system and align it with relevant international standards and practices.

Both sides emphasized—according to the same source—the importance of strengthening cooperation and exchanging expertise and insights in the economic, financial, and banking sectors, as well as leveraging international experience to support reform and development programs.
