Hello everyone,

During your expatriation in Cambodia, you might have been made aware of interesting investment schemes (local or international). Whether one wants to make money grow, protect oneself or prepare for retirement, investment is always an attractive option. It is, however, never free of risk. Would you, therefore, like to share some practical information for other expats and expats to be?

Is the Cambodian economy open to foreign investment? Do local authorities encourage investment (through formalities, tax etc.)?

What are the promising sectors to invest and do business in Cambodia?

Who do you turn to for information before investing your money? (organisation, professional, lawyer, consultant)

According to the sectors of activity and the projects, what budget should be foreseen for an investment in Cambodia?

What do you think are the pitfalls to avoid and what advice would you give someone who wants to invest?

Thanks in advance for your feedback,
Diksha

I can say Cambodia is full of opportunities.For investors and for business people as well. With good risk management and a trusted accelerator you can find very good opportunities.

One of the safest and easiest way to grow your hard earned money is to open a US dollar FD with an MFI. One local MFI pays the highest interest rate of 8% per year.
