Bahrain is one of the MENA regional outperformers for the low levels of risk which businesses and investors face when trading with or investing in the country. Bahrain's diversified economy, liberal trade and investment regimes, good protection of real and intellectual property rights, and low levels of bureaucratic red tape all provide for an attractive operating environment. Investors are provided with further incentives such as low tax rates and good access to financing via the local banking sector or international debt markets. The most salient risks come in the form of the country's heightened political risk profile and significant linkages to Saudi Arabia, which is battling economically with subdued global crude prices. These factors have seen Bahrain's current account deficit widen over the course of 2015 and 2016 and FDI levels decrease.

Bangladesh offers some attractive investment opportunities over the medium term, with its large, low-cost labour market, strategic geographic position and the gradual implementation of business-friendly business reforms making it an increasingly popular location for labour-intensive manufacturing firms. The government's open economic policies and welcoming attitude to FDI, as well as the wide range of strategic trade and investment incentives available, considerably boost the country's appeal, relative to regional peers. Nevertheless, investors continue to be faced with severe structural obstacles including an entrenched culture of corruption, a yawning infrastructure deficit, a largely ineffective legal system, wide inequality, weak access to credit and a burdensome tax regime, which limit the country's appeal as an FDI destination.

Colombia presents substantial opportunities for foreign investors, with businesses able to take advantage of strong market liberalization, few trade barriers and a large number of FTAs that have opened the country up to a diverse set of trade partners. Colombia holds significant advantages over peers such as Brazil and Uruguay due to its limited government intervention, low profit taxes and strong access to financial markets. However, the business environment is hampered by widespread institutional corruption and a weak rule of law, which increase operational difficulties faced by businesses.

Trade and Investment risks are high in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) owing to the country's high fiscal and trade costs and the extent of red tape plaguing its bureaucracy. Furthermore risks are compounded by the volatile domestic security situation, such that foreign investment in the country remains low by regional standards. The country's weak regulatory environment will continue to curb foreign investors due to fears over licensing, taxation and government intervention, particularly in the vital mining sector. Moreover, the non-independence of the country's judiciary poses further risks to all businesses, providing minimal protection against corrupt practices.
