BELARUS. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT FOR INVESTORS

Lately, doing business abroad has become quite popular. This direction is explained by several factors: the desire of the entrepreneur to successfully invest his capital, the desire for financial development and knowledge of foreign markets and economies.

And it all becomes more accessible. Belarus has also become open to foreign investment – rapidly advancing upward after the collapse of the USSR. The country’s economy successfully developed and the government created favorable conditions for the effective management and organization of business.

The World Bank Group confirms the growth of the country’s economic development in the world ranking from the 120th row to 38. And in the plans of state agencies – to rise in the top 30 countries.

This result became available after creating an attractive investment climate, continuous improvement of the tax system, simple procedures for registration of ownership and registration of companies.

The plans include further improvement, which will include: administrative procedures, licensing of goods, affordable taxation, fully competitive pricing, preferential systems for investors.

And as a result – $ 8.6 billion invested in banks of Belarus from foreign investors.

The geographical position contributes to the creation of trade routes connecting Europe with the countries of independent states and Asia.
Stability in the economy. After the global crisis, according to experts, the country’s economy suffered the least. They also predict further positive growth.

Favorable climate for investment. Free economic zones have been created for successful business by the government, and a system of tax incentives for investments in agriculture.

The country also has a Foreign Investment Advisory Council, which provides:
