Short answer

What the figures show

A record year for inflows means a foreign-owned company setting up now is neither early nor a novelty — the registry, the banks and the tax office all deal with foreign founders routinely. It also means the competition for good local staff and good premises is rising with it. (World Bank, 2025 ↗)
