This economy profile for Doing Business
2016 presents the 11 Doing Business indicators for Jamaica.
To allow for useful comparison, the profile also provides
data for other selected economies (comparator economies) for
each indicator. Doing Business 2016 is the 13th edition in a
series of annual reports measuring the regulations that
enhance business activity and those that constrain it.
Economies are ranked on their ease of doing business; for
2015 Jamaica ranks 64. A high ease of doing business ranking
means the regulatory environment is more conducive to the
starting and operation of a local firm. 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 and over
time. 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 11 areas in the life cycle of a business: starting
a business, dealing with construction permits, getting
electricity, registering property, getting credit,
protecting minority investors, paying taxes, trading across
borders, enforcing contracts, resolving insolvency and labor
market regulation. The data in this report are current as of
June 1, 2015 (except for the paying taxes indicators, which
cover the period from January to December 2014). |
