Rankings on the ease of doing business do not tell the whole story about an economy's business environment. Lhe indicator does not account for all factors important for doing business- for example, macroeconomic conditions, infrastructure, workforce skills or security. But improvement in an economy's ranking does indicate that its government is creating a regulatory environment more conducive to operating a business. In Eastern Europe and Central Asia many economies continue to do so- and economies in the region once again dominate the list of top Doing Business reformers in 2007/08. New this year: reforms in the region are moving eastward as 4 newcomers join the top 10 list of reformers: Azerbaijan, Albania, the Kyrgyz Republic and Belarus (table 1.1). Rwanda is one example of the divi...

Four Eastern European economies joined Poland in streamlining bankruptcy procedures. Latvia passed a new insolvency law in November 2007. Now financially distressed companies can choose to continue operating by pursuing reorganization. Like Poland, Latvia also tightened the qualification standards for bankruptcy administrators. So did Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Czech Republic's Insolvency Act took effect on January 1, 2008. The law introduces reorganization as the preferred method for resolving insolvency, mandates stricter deadlines, establishes an electronic insolvency register and sets new qualification standards for trustees. Expanding creditors' rights has been the most popular reform feature over the past 5 years (figure 11.5). Seventeen economies have empowered creditors: China,...

The impact of international law on judicial independence has been influenced by international human rights treaties that contain principles on fair procedure and the right to be tried before an impartial and independent tribunal.2 International standards of judicial independence have made significant contributions to local rules, which have been reinforced by international jurisprudence.3 Some of the most influential international standards were drafted by professional nongovernmental and intergovernmental organizations. The Burgh House Prindples on the Independence of the International Judiciary,5 the International Bar Association's Code of Minimum Standards of 'Judicial Independence ("IBA Standards"),6 the Tokyo Principles on the Independence of the Judiciary in the Lawasia Region J ...

The economic crisis that began in the US has had a dramatic effect on economies around the world, but none so much as the impact on its two closest trade allies and Nafta partners, Canada and Mexico. The serious consequences of such a close alliance have led some to call for a thorough reexamination of the Nafta agreement. On the other hand, there are many who argue that a tighter economic partnership among Canada, the US and Mexico -- more along the lines of the European Union model -- would be of benefit to all. Nafta has never been significantly amended since its inception despite many threats to do so. It is probably better for governments to focus on ways to jointly solve these new problems than obsess about how they did or didn't solve the problems of the past, says Robert Paterso...
