Bulgaria's Invest Body Mulls Industrial Zones Promotion
The establishment of more industrial zones and reduction of the corporate
tax are placed as top priorities for the new management of the state-run
investment body.
Stoyan Stalev, who recently stepped into office as chairman of the
InvestBulgarian Agency, told journalists Tuesday he would actively work for
improvements in the investment incentives legislation.
He believed investors would be additionally lured to come to Bulgaria,
should corporate tax is reduced from the current 15% to 12%. Stalev also
suggested that in case of profit reinvestment, the tax rate should be
zeroed.
In 2005 foreign investments in Bulgaria cumulated USD 2.3 B, investment's
chief reminded and whished a more proportionate approach for its
distribution into the national economy.
"A large percentage of foreign investment flows into trade, services, and
finances on the account of lower portion allotted for industrial purposes,"
Stoyan Stalev noted.
He called to the government to consider a strategy to create incentives for
Bulgarian students studying abroad to come to their homeland.
