| Summary: | Doing business sheds light on how easy
or difficult it is for a local entrepreneur to open and run
a small to medium-size business when complying with relevant
regulations. It measures and tracks changes in regulations
affecting 10 areas in the life cycle of a business: starting
a business, dealing with construction permits, getting
electricity, registering property, getting credit,
protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders,
enforcing contracts and resolving insolvency. In a series of
annual reports doing business presents quantitative
indicators on business regulations and the protection of
property rights that can be compared across 183 economies,
from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, over time. This regional
profile presents the doing business indicators for the
Middle East and North Africa. To allow useful comparison, it
also provides data for other selected economies (comparator
economies) for each indicator. The data in this report are
current as of June 1, 2011 (except for the paying taxes
indicators, which cover the period January-December 2010). |
