Austria

Austria has a well-developed market economy that welcomes foreign direct investment. The country benefits from a highly skilled workforce and a high standard of living. Its capital, Vienna, consistently places at the top of global quality-of-life rankings.

Vienna has been a vibrant bustling financial centre for centuries. Now home to around two million, the city benefits not only from its location in Central Europe but also its proximity to the increasingly important countries in Eastern Europe.

Austria is generally ranked in the top 30 countries in the world in the World Bank “Ease of Doing Business” listings. Its political and economic stability create the perfect environment for a thriving financial services sector.
