The Challenges of Doing Business in Papua New Guinea: An Analytical Summary of the 2007 Business Environment Survey by the Institute of National Affairs
Asian Development Bank | June 2008
Abstract
This report summarizes the results of an extensive survey of the business community on the
challenges of doing business in Papua New Guinea. It finds that despite some improvement in
the business environment, progress since a similar survey was conducted in 2002 has been
disappointing. Many of the issues identified then still have a negative impact on investment and
entrepreneurship. To ensure that the current resource boom is translated into sustainable prosperity,
substantial reform is needed.
