Full Description


This work focuses on the economic system and investment climate in Latvia, the legal structure and business regulations and best practice on all aspects of trading with and investing in Latvia. Latvia is the second largest of the three Baltic states, with a population of around 2.3 million and a surface area of a little more than 65,500 square kilometres. Latvia is strategically positioned at the centre of the Baltic republics - Estonia is to the north and Lithuania to the south - with Russia, Latvia's traditional political patron, lying to the East. Riga, Latvia's grand capital and major port on the Baltic Sea, has for centuries served as an important commercial, cultural and transportation centre. Today Latvia, in a similar vein to Estonia and Lithuania, is considered to be amongst the most successful of the transitional economies of the newly independent states of the former Soviet Union. Information for the book and a companion website has been supplied by a network of contacts in Latvia, including the Latvian Development Agency and BICEPS. Other valuable sources include local offices of Ernst & Young and Deloitte & Touche Topics covered include: the economy and business environment; the legal structure and business regulation; finance, accountancy and taxation; key sectors of trade and investment; and business culture and risk ratings from Coface and MIG. A unique user password supplied with the book allows readers to access a complementary website. This provides easy access to the material in a clear, searchable format. It also allows the contributors and publisher to keep readers up to date with latest developments and to update chapters as and when relevant.
