Foreigner. As quite favourable. Foreign investments have been flowing into our country at an accelerating rate since we started our transition to a market economy.

R.: Who invests capital in your country?

F.: Both foreign companies and individuals. The US heads the list of the major investors. The investment policy pursued by the government focuses on foreign direct investments, I mean setting up joint ventures and establishing foreign branches or subsidiaries.

R.: What is the major reason for this striking growth of foreign investments?

F.: Investors are willing to invest because of two reasons: increase in the middle class that is driving economic development, and the decrease in politically motivated interference in the free market.

R.: Do you think the situation will continue?

F.: Definitely, the government have announced plans to privatize the banking, insurance, power, oil, steel and telecommunications industries, which is sure to encourage still more capital inflows.
