From the Eye On Iraq: The transportation sector is, unquestionably, one of the most fundamental services to Iraq’s population. With over 29 million people needing to get around on a daily basis, it represents a massive opportunity for investment and growth – not least as it is one area that has suffered from the twin effects of government neglect, placing it at the foot of the region’s transport systems in terms of development and modernization, and the ongoing security situation.

Iraq Economic Environment

Monday, September 7th, 2009

The general economic picture has substantially improved. Inflation came down from 17% to 12% in 2008. Major steps have been taken to open up the oil sector to international oil companies. Iraq’s trade volumes continue to grow and substantial investment opportunities are emerging.

Long term, the most effective security solution is economic growth and job creation. The Central Bank of Iraq is fighting a successful battle against inflation and the currency is strengthening.

Past obstructions to effective business are being removed, and Iraq is doing everything possible to help its private sector flourish. Thus, through an open trade and investment regime, an investor-friendly business environment is developing.

There are different legal regimes to attract foreign investment. Today, in most cases, foreign investors have been granted the same rights as national investors vis-à-vis their investments. Iraq’s new Investment Law, approved in 2006, guarantees a climate where foreign investment is facilitated.
