Members of the DLA Piper Weiss-Tessbach team are specialists in the law affecting business in Bosnia-Herzegovina and across the region. Whether your business is local or is active locally as part of international operations, we offer practical advice on how local law and regulation will affect your business.
Having overcome the tragic events of the early 1990s, Bosnia-Herzegovina is moving steadily towards a market economy and is committed to accelerating the pace of economic reform. Current economic action plans are aimed at moving the reform agenda forward more vigorously. Businesses that develop their approach to the market today will be well placed to reap benefits over the long-term development of the region.
Bosnia-Herzegovina offers investment rewards to those prepared with business models that are tailored to a country at this unique stage of development and those who have cultivated strong commercial relationships. Opportunities exist both in the privatisation of state-owned firms as well as in greenfield investments. The Government has placed increased emphasis on accelerating privatisation, particularly of state-owned firms in the telecommunications, energy and construction sectors.
Currently, the commercial and legal environment reflects the complexity of the region's history, with competing layers of legislation at state, district, provincial and municipal levels. Navigating this complexity and developing your approach to local legal procedures and commercial conventions requires expert local knowledge.
Our local colleagues in Sarajevo speak Bosnian, English and German and offer full legal advice on developing your business in the region. This includes advice on mergers and acquisitions, general corporate law, finance, labour law, intellectual property, competition and much more.
