Central African Republic

Although comparatively under developed, owing to previous political instability, the, Central African Republic is, through the recent establishment of a national unity government in early 2009, hoping to stabilise the investment and financial markets.

The CAR has a lot going for it in terms of natural resources, boasting considerable agricultural, water and mineral resources, and has been dubbed one of the world's leading countries in sustainable development. The current economy is largely led by the cultivation and sale of food crops, and the annual real GDP growth rate is just above 3%.

The political system is linked considerably to the legal markets, which follow a system of regular courts (civil, commercial, administrative, criminal and financial) and a military court.
