Inaugural 2016 Ease of Doing Business Index on Attractiveness to Investors, Business Friendliness and Competitive Policies (EDB Index ABC) for 21 Sub-National Economies of India
About This Book
-->
This book by the Asia Competitiveness Institute introduces a new ease of doing business index that aims to allow for a better approximation of ease of doing business conditions in India's sub-national economies. The approach takes into account three major aspects of doing business, namely (a) Attractiveness to Investors, (b) Business Friendliness, and (c) Competitive Policies. The bottom-up approach considers the various operational issues that firms face at the ground level, with the emphasis being on de facto issues.
The analysis provided in the book not only stands up to academic scrutiny as it is grounded in rigorous methodological foundations, but also remains accessible and appealing to policymakers with the co-authors recommending appropriate policy interventions to improve the ease of doing business of India's sub-national economies.

"The study presents a holistic and comprehensive analysis to understand the ease of doing business (EDB) in India at the sub-national level. While there are many indices existing at the national level, at the sub-national, it appears this is only the second one after World Bank's ease of doing business. Compared to World Bank's, EDB index ABC is much broader and includes a mix of ex-ante, ex-post as well as de jure factors."
