Industrial
development and manufacturing in the Maldives will continue
to be based on the reality that income earning opportunities
lie in winning niche global markets because of the small
size of the population and lack of a sizeable domestic
market.
Administrative reforms are underway to further promote
industrial investment by making the already hospitable
policy environment more transparent. This is being done
through revision of the Foreign Investment Act and strengthening
of the mandate and functions of the Foreign Investment
Services Bureau.
Due
to liberal open economic policies and good access to
markets in Asia and Europe, foreign investors are well
placed to benefit from existing markets or to venture
into new markets.
