Abstract
Doing Business 2018 is the 15th in a
series of annual reports investigating the regulations that
enhance business activity and those that constrain it. This
economy profile presents the Doing Business indicators for
Mozambique. Doing Business presents quantitative indicators
on business regulation and the protection of property rights
that can be compared across 190 economies; for 2018
Mozambique ranks 138. Doing Business measures aspects of
regulation affecting 11 areas of the life of a business. Ten
of these areas are included in this year's ranking on
the ease of doing business: starting a business, dealing
with construction permits, getting electricity, registering
property, getting credit, protecting minority investors,
paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts
and resolving insolvency. Doing Business also measures
features of labor market regulation, which is not included
in this year's ranking. Data in Doing Business 2018 are
current as of June 1, 2017. The indicators are used to
analyze economic outcomes and identify what reforms of
business regulation have worked, where and why.
