Summary:

Expanding trade and investment is vital for the Middles East and North Africa region. This title analyzes why the region has yet to tap fully into the rich stream of global commerce and investment--and the measures needed to do so, including improvements in the domestic investment climate and reforms in the policies of the region's trading partners.
