GCC limits block foreign investment - The National

Foreign ownership limits and licensing delays are among the main barriers to foreign investment in the GCC, says a report by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

"[The] private sector perceives the restrictions to foreign ownership and approval requirements as key obstacles," said the report, published in draft form yesterday.

Restrictive quotas such as nationalisation policies and sponsorship requirements were other hurdles to international business, it said.
