Sixth most attractive investment location in the world
(firmenpresse) - Jelenia Gora/Poland, 22.09.2011 - Poland is more widely perceived as an attractive place for investment. In the recent UNCTAD World Investment Report 2011, Poland was ranked sixth most attractive investment location in the world for the 2011 - 2013 period. It was placed 5 points up from the 11th position in 2010, being only preceded by China, the USA, India, Brazil and Russia.
The Report also indicates that risk level for Poland is very low, meanwhile savings and potential profits much higher than in many other countries. This is also confirmed by Poland's high ranking in the business services sector. In the ranking of top 10 emerging cities, Cracow was placed 1st, ahead of Beijing, Buenos Aires, Cairo and Sao Paulo. Polish cities have increasingly been perceived as the best destinations for BPO projects.
In experts' opinions, Poland's main advantages are: availability and effectiveness of the Polish, qualified workforce, business environment, low business-related risk, as well as political and economic stability.
Attractiveness of the Polish cities is also confirmed by the recent Global Office Locations 2011 Report published by CB Richard Ellis. From 280 international companies covered by the survey 150 operate in Warsaw placing Poland's capital 5th in Europe and 12th in the world in the category of most attractive office locations.
