INTRODUCTION
Doing Business sheds light on how easy or difficult it is for a local
entrepreneur to open and run a small to medium-size business when
complying with relevant regulations.
It measures and tracks changes in regulations affecting 10 areas in the
life cycle of a business.
In a series of annual reports Doing Business presents quantitative
indicators on business regulations and the protection of property rights
that can be compared across 189 economies.

The Doing Business methodology has limitations such as an economy’s
proximity to large markets, the quality of its infrastructure services (other
than those related to trading across borders and getting electricity), the
security of property from theft and looting, the transparency of
government procurement, macroeconomic conditions or the underlying
strength of institutions—are not directly studied
The data not only highlight the extent of obstacles to doing business,
they also help identify the source of those obstacles

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
For policy makers trying to improve their economy’s regulatory
environment for business, and to find out how it compares with the
regulatory environment in other economies.
Doing Business presents results for 2 aggregate measures: the distance
to frontier score and the ease of doing business ranking.
The ease of doing business ranking compares economies with one
another; the distance to frontier score benchmarks economies with
respect to regulatory best practice, showing the absolute distance to the
best performance on each Doing Business indicator.
Ease of doing business ranking can show only how much the regulatory
environment has changed relative to that in other economies.
