Abstract
This regional economy profile presents
the doing business indicators for Arab World. To allow
useful comparison, it also provides data for other selected
economies (comparator economies) for each indicator. The
data in this report are current as of June 1, 2011 (except
for the paying taxes indicators, which cover the period
January December 2010). 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 10 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 and resolving insolvency.
