Investors are redirecting from Greece to Bulgaria


The ongoing crisis in Greece and the inability  to negotiate an agreement with creditors may additionally encourage the foreign investors to focus on the neighboring country Bulgaria.

Bulgaria adheres to strict budgetary discipline, has a low government debt and has harmonized with EU legislation and this makes it an attractive country for investment.

European Commission (EC) has recommended to Bulgaria to pay special attention to the negative external economic positions of inter company indebtedness and inadequate labour market. The recommendations are part of the annual review of the Commission on the economic recovery.

European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) raised its forecast for growth of Bulgarian economy. The Bank expects 1% growth this year compared to the previous forecast of 0.8 percent. Bulgaria's economy grew by 1.7 % last 2014 despite the difficulties in the banking sector.
