This regional profile presents the Doing
Business indicators for economies in Organization for the
Harmonization of Business Law in Africa (OHADA). It also
shows the regional average, the best performance globally
for each indicator and data for the following comparator
regions: Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa, East
Asia and the Pacific, European Union, Latin America and
Southern African Development Community. The data in this
report are current as of June 1, 2013, except for the paying
taxes indicators, which cover the period January to December
2012. Regional Doing Business reports capture differences in
business regulations and their enforcement across countries
in a single region. They provide data on the ease of doing
business, rank each location, and recommend reforms to
improve performance in each of the indicator areas. The
report 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 11
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,
resolving insolvency and employing workers. Doing Business
presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and
the protection of property rights that can be compared
across 189 economies, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, over
time. The data set covers 47 economies in Sub-Saharan
Africa, 33 in Latin America and the Caribbean, 25 in East
Asia and the Pacific, 25 in Eastern Europe and Central Asia,
20 in the Middle East and North Africa and 8 in South Asia,
as well as 31 OECD high-income economies. The indicators are
used to analyze economic outcomes and identify what reforms
have worked, where and why. |
