| Summary: | Abstract (same for all, but change
sentence in red; ranking is on page 4 for every country (DB
Rank): Doing Business 2020 is the 17th in a series of annual
studies investigating the regulations that enhance business
activity and those that constrain it. Doing Business
presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and
the protection of property rights that can be compared
across 190 economies— from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe—and over
time. Regulations affecting 12 areas of the life of a
business are covered: starting a business, dealing with
construction permits, getting electricity, registering
property, getting credit, protecting minority investors,
paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts,
resolving insolvency, employing workers, and contracting
with the government. The employing workers and contracting
with the government indicator sets are not included in this
year’s ranking on the ease of doing business. Data in Doing
Business 2020 are current as of May 1, 2019. The indicators
are used to analyze economic outcomes and identify what
reforms of business regulation have worked, where and why.
This economy profile presents indicators for Afghanistan;
for 2020 Afghanistan ranks 173. |
