BBBF APCO COVID-19 Survey Results Virtual Meeting
July 9, 2020 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Join BBBF Chairman Khalid Al Zayani OBE, Vice Chair Paula Boast and Jolyon Kimble, General Manager APCO Worldwide, on Thursday 9th July at 12:30pm to hear the findings from our survey on doing business in Bahrain during COVID-19. You will also have an opportunity to raise questions and lend your views to the conversation.
We asked for your views on Bahrain’s response to COVID-19, the support you need to see out the pandemic and the outlook for Bahrain and the Middle East. Your responses covered a range of topics from ensuring public health and safety to foreign ownership of land and businesses.
On how the Bahraini Government has responded to COVID-19: “Earlier and more dynamic assistance, focused where it can help most. Decisive and competent leadership able to make an impact fast.”
On how Bahrain can become more competitive post-COVID: “Statement that it remains focused on being the gateway to business in the Gulf and will thus carefully consider any substantive changes to taxation, ownership or movement of corporate income receipts/funds. Greater determination in securing an FTA with the UK on a unilateral basis.”
“We will also be announcing the winner of the £100 Amazon voucher at the event!”
