 Introduction

acrobat Icon In recent years, the world has seen brisk changes and shifts in all economic fields, leading to radical changes in the economic policies of many states. Most states in the world have abandoned governmental hegemony over various economic activities, leaning toward liberalizing their economies, and allowing the local and foreign private sector to conduct all -or most- economic activities.

The country has recently seen positive economic changes consisting of allowing foreign investments to enter the country -in tandem with the formulation of laws encouraging that purpose.
