Ontario makes FDI shortlist
The Ontario region should be on the UK’s overseas investor shortlist. It has a highly skilled workforce, its banking system is the envy of the world, it will shortly have one of the lowest rates of corporate tax and it has a first-class infrastructure system. Clare Barnett, UK Ontario government senior economic officer, says Ontario’s […]
Central American region enters EU
Six years ago the Central American Region and Dominican Republic signed the Free Trade Agreement with the US (DR-CAFTA). The treaty has eliminated commercial barriers and taxes for the introduction of certain products, which certainly has brought further economic development for the participant countries. Despite the international financial crisis there has been a considerable increment […]
Advisories eye Moroccan deals
Kettani Law Firm (KLF) is a major Moroccan business law firm founded in 1971 by Professor Azzedine Kettani who was admitted to practice as a lawyer in 1968 and is approved by the High Court of Justice of the Kingdom of Morocco. He was joined in 1992 – after internships in France and the US […]
Austria relaxes legal hurdles
In the past, the registration of a branch of an English company in Austria encountered significant legal resistance and was often rejected by the courts. The cause of this resistance was more often than not a lack of understanding of the Austrian courts of the legal structure of English companies and the inability of the […]
Is the recovery still under construction?
It used to be said that you could measure a city’s economic wellbeing in direct proportion to the number of tower cranes visible along its skyline. But now, with so many building projects shelved or in limbo awaiting remission from the downturn, the exact opposite is often true, with those erstwhile symbols of prosperity standing […]
Tanzania poised to become a destination
The largest state in East Africa has for decades been best known for its touristic attractions – most notably the ever snow capped Mount Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. Mining is giving the country a new layer of international prominence. In little more than a decade, Tanzania has emerged from being […]
The back-to-front world view of Standard Chartered
Standard Chartered does not see the world in quite the same way as other banks. In March this year, the bank appointed V Shankar as chief executive of the Middle East, Africa, the Americas and Europe and moved him to Dubai. Read the job title again, and it almost looks like a deliberate snub to […]
Uruguay economy braces for growth
Besides its long-standing political and juridical stability, the richness of its natural resources and the high social and educational level of its inhabitants, a sustained process of economic growth experienced in recent years has turned Uruguay into the “jewel of the region”. The Oriental Republic of Uruguay, a small country located in the south east […]
Expanding Taiwan
Trying to find a success story in the financial industry from the past few years can be nearly as difficult as trying to untangle the global economic mess. With so many firms lying in ruin, it is a surprise to come across one that has managed not only to grow in its home country, let […]
Brazil markets continue surge
Foreign companies have increased their interest in the Brazilian market and domestic companies have finally found room to expand their activities overseas and become multinationals. Machado Associados started its activities in 1990, initially as a tax boutique. Its tax expertise came from the wide experience of its founders who had previously worked as partners in […]
