Albania
During the last decade, Albania has been the fastest-developing country in the Central and Eastern European region. In recent years, the country has benefitted from a more stable political climate and this has prompted foreign investors to expand their operations in the country. In addition, the Albanian government is trying to attract foreign investors and promote domestic investments through the rationalisation and consistent implementation of commerce laws, increased transparency of trade procedures, restructuring of the fiscal system, anti-corruption measures and efforts to resolve property-ownership disputes. Albania also has much to offer in key areas such as power, tourism, mining, textiles and agriculture. In addition, Albania offers considerable potential as a location for business process outsourcing (BPO) centres.
