| Summary: | 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. Doing Business 2016 presents the data for
the labor market regulation indicators in an annex. The
report does not present rankings of economies on labor
market regulation indicators or include the topic in the
aggregate distance to frontier score or ranking on the ease
of doing business. This regional profile presents the Doing
Business indicators for economies in Middle East and North
Africa (MENA). It also shows the regional average, the best
performance globally for each indicator and data for the
following comparator regions: Latin America, East Asia and
the Pacific (EAP), Europe and Central Asia (ECA), South Asia
(SA) and OECD High Income.. The data in this report are
current as of June 1, 2015 (except for the paying taxes
indicators, which cover the period January–December 2014). |
