Summary

Doing Business with Bosnia & Herzegovina is the definitive guide to investment opportunities and business practice in this Balkan state. It provides an objective assessment of the economic and investment climate, information on market potential in key sectors, and authoritative advice on the mechanics of investing in or doing business in this highly motivated country. Although still dependent on international financial aid and UN peacekeeping forces, B&H is fully committed to economic reform and has begun a steady transformation to a market economy. Although the division of the economy between two jurisdictions has made economic policy-making difficult, the economy has recorded exceptional growth since the 1990s. A central bank has been set up and a common currency fixed to the Euro successfully launched. For foreign investors B&H now provides a stable and liberal environment for business development and an ideal link between Western Europe and Eastern Europe and the former Yugoslavia.
