Santo Domingo.- Central Banker, Héctor Valdez Albizu, on Fri. met with a delegation of international electricity sector executives, who expressed confidence which foreign markets have in Dominican Republic projects, as evidenced in macroeconomic stability, growth and the favorable business climate.
