To allow for useful comparison, the profile also provides data for other selected economies (comparator economies) for each indicator. Doing Business 2015 is the 12th edition in a series of annual reports measuring the regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it. Economies are ranked on their ease of doing business; for 2015 Hungary ranks 54. A high ease of doing business ranking means the regulatory environment is more conducive to the starting and operation of a local firm. Doing Business presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and the protection of property rights that can be compared across 189 economies from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and over time. Doing Business measures regulations affecting 11 areas of the life of a business known as indicators. 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 labor market regulation, which is not included in this year's ranking. The data in this report are current as of June 1, 2014 (except for the paying taxes indicators, which cover the period from January to December 2013).en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO SERVICESACCOUNTINGACCOUNTING POLICIESADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSESAMOUNT OF CREDITAUCTIONAUDIT COMMITTEEAUDIT REPORTSAUDITSAVAILABILITY OF CREDITBANK ACCOUNTBANK LOANBANKRUPTCYBANKRUPTCY LAWBANKRUPTCY LAWSBORROWERBUSINESS ENTRYBUSINESS ENVIRONMENTBUSINESS INDICATORBUSINESS INDICATORSBUSINESS REGISTRATIONBUSINESS REGULATIONBUSINESS REGULATIONSBUSINESSESBUYERBUYERSCADASTRECAPITAL GAINSCERTIFICATECERTIFICATESCHECKSCOLLATERALCOLLATERAL AGREEMENTCOLLATERAL AGREEMENTSCOLLATERAL FOR LOANSCOLLATERAL LAWCOLLATERAL LAWSCOLLATERAL REGISTRYCOMMERCIAL ACTIVITIESCOMMERCIAL BUSINESSCOMMERCIAL REGISTRYCOMPANY LAWSCOMPETITIVENESSCOMPLIANCE COSTSCONFLICT OF INTERESTCONFLICTS OF INTERESTCONTRACTORSCOPYRIGHTCORPORATE GOVERNANCECREDIT BUREAUCREDIT BUREAUSCREDIT HISTORYCREDIT INFORMATIONCREDIT INFORMATION SYSTEMCREDIT INFORMATION SYSTEMSCREDIT SOURCECREDITORCREDITORSCREDITWORTHINESSCUSTOMSDEBTORDEBTSDEEDDEFAULTSDEPOSITDISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTSDISTRIBUTION NETWORKDOMAINE-MAILELECTRICITYELECTRONIC FILINGELECTRONIC SIGNATUREENTERPRISE SURVEYEXPENDITURESFINANCIAL HISTORYFINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSFINANCIAL RESOURCESFINANCIAL STATEMENTFINANCIAL STATEMENTSFINANCIAL TRANSACTIONSFRAUDGOOD PRACTICEGOVERNMENT OFFICEHARD COPYIMAGESIMMOVABLE PROPERTYINCOME TAXINFORMATION SHARINGINFORMATION SYSTEMINFORMATION SYSTEMSINSPECTIONINSPECTIONSINSTALLATIONINSURANCEINTERNATIONAL BANKINVESTOR PROTECTIONINVESTOR PROTECTIONSISSUANCELABOR MARKETLEGAL FRAMEWORKLEGAL RIGHTSLENDERLENDERSLENDING DECISIONSLEVYLICENSELICENSESLIENSLIMITED LIABILITYLOAN AMOUNTSLOCAL BUSINESSMACROECONOMIC CONDITIONSMANUFACTURINGMARKET CONDITIONSMATERIALMINIMUM CAPITAL REQUIREMENTMINIMUM CAPITAL REQUIREMENTSMINORITY INVESTORMINORITY INVESTORSMINORITY SHAREHOLDERMINORITY SHAREHOLDERSMORTGAGEMORTGAGESMOVABLE ASSETSMOVABLE COLLATERALNEW MARKETSNOTARIESNOTARYNOTARY PUBLICONE-STOP SHOPONLINE REGISTRATIONORIGINAL ASSETORIGINAL ASSETSOVERHEADPERSONAL ASSETSPOSSESSORY SECURITYPRIVATE CREDITPRIVATE CREDIT BUREAUSPRIVATE PROPERTYPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR CREDITPROCUREMENTPROPERTY RIGHTSPUBLIC DISCLOSUREPUBLIC NETWORKPURCHASINGQUALITY CONTROLQUERIESREGISTRATION APPLICATIONREGISTRATION FEEREGISTRATION FEESREGISTRATION PROCESSREGISTRIESREGISTRYREGISTRY OFFICEREGISTRY OFFICESREGULATORY ENVIRONMENTREGULATORY PRACTICEREGULATORY REQUIREMENTSREPORTINGRESULTRESULTSRETENTIONRETURNSALESSALES AGREEMENTSEARCHESSECURITIESSECURITIES REGULATIONSSECURITY INTERESTSECURITY INTERESTSSERVICE PROVIDERSSHAREHOLDERSHAREHOLDERSSTAMP DUTYSTOCK EXCHANGETAXTAX DEBTTAX RATETAX RATESTAX RULESTELEPHONETELEPHONE CONNECTIONTIME PERIODTRADINGTRANSACTIONTRANSACTIONS SYSTEMTRANSLATIONTRANSPARENCYTURNOVERUSERSUSESVERIFICATIONWAREHOUSEWAREHOUSESWITHDRAWAL
