Details
- Abstract / Summary
- 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.
