Energy, tourism, infrastructure, construction \u2013 these are among the most interesting areas for foreign investors in the Republic of Srpska.<\/p>\n
They say that the Republic of Srpska as well as this part of the Balkans and Europe have untapped potential, both economic and human. An Israeli company is interested in cooperating with Banja Luka Airport.<\/p>\n
\u2018We are interested in the entire project, from security, software solutions, building a larger facility, construction works. The entire project is very interesting for us, the company I represent. From my point of view, it is always good to have the government and the private sector involved in projects. Thus every project becomes stronger,\u2019 says Stella Weinstein, owner and director of Air Strategics Israel.<\/p>\n
Srpska has huge market demands and needs for investments, fresh capital, say investors coming to Srpska, participating in conferences and speaking to local businessmen. They are also delighted with the people, their knowledge, and talent.<\/p>\n
\u2018We have come here with an open mind regarding investing in this region. This part of the world is very desirable, we often come and travel to these areas. We have met, sat down and spoken with people from probably 30 countries around the world and they all want to invest here. You are an open book for us. Our priority is infrastructure projects, such as Banja Luka airport, green energy, sustainable energy, but we also keep an eye on the cyber sector. The amount of talent in that sector here is incredible,\u2019 says Simon Clark, founder and director of Richmond Park Associates UAE.<\/p>\n
Japan, China, United Arab Emirates \u2013 to name a few countries of origin of the interested businessmen and companies that would like to invest in Srpska. According to them, tax reliefs, proximity to the EU are some of the advantages.<\/p>\n
\u2018We are interested in starting a trading company, especially because of the tax reliefs. That is very attractive for investors. We have spoken with companies involved in agriculture, with banks. Have there been any results? Yes, I think so, I will share my experience with Chinese and Japanese companies,\u2019 said Jin An Chai of Nesan Trading company.<\/p>\n
A good reputation and references in the business world need to be justified. However, until they see for themselves, investors are reluctant to invest their money.<\/p>\n
