The Director of the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency of BiH (FIPA) Gordan Milinić talked with Kuwaiti investors and representatives of the company Al Dar National Real Estate on infrastructural projects they are interested in such as: projects of highway, railways, airports, and projects of food production, hotel, spa centres, as well as on their experience in business in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Kuwaiti investors who are running business in
BiH, emphasize that investors from Kuwait would invest more in BiH if the
business environment is more favourable and simple, and spoke about their
experiences and difficulties they had as of establishing company to realization
of the project.
They overcame obstacles, but emphasize that
investors go where it is easier to do business.
The Director Milinić informed the guests that
all levels of governments are working to improve the business environment,
which is imperative on the road to the EU, and without which BiH can’t achieve
significant economic growth; that FIPA is working on proposing measures to
improve the business environment, and that in 2016, it proposed 41 measures to
improve the business environment in order to make BiH more competitive
investment destination.
He stressed the fact that a study undertaken by
the Foreign Investors Council (FIC) showed that 80% of foreign investors in
Bosnia and Herzegovina continue to invest, what encourages us further to
continue implementing the necessary reforms in order that the number of foreign
investors is much higher.
