Argentina

Business Indicators

With an overall score of 7.73/12, Argentina is progressing toward standard on the economic, legal, and political indicators that make up our Business Index. Argentina is a market-based economy in which total government expenditures, including consumption and transfer payments, are low. In 2006, government spending equaled 20.9 percent of GDP, and the government received 0.8 percent of its revenues from state-owned enterprises and government ownership of property. Argentina is open to foreign investment. Registering a foreign business is fairly simple and most local companies may be wholly owned by foreign investors. However, foreign investment is prohibited in a few sectors. The most significant deterrents to investment are legal uncertainties concerning creditor, contract, and property rights and frequent and unpredictable regulatory changes. There is extensive corruption, reflected in Argentina's ranking of 93rd out of 163 countries in Transparency International's 2006 Corruption Perceptions Index.
