Recommendation

The International Atomic Energy Agency ruled in January 2016 that Iran had met its requirements under the 2015 nuclear agreement, thereby allowing the removal of long-standing economic sanctions on the country. Experts at the Economist Intelligence Unit offer a careful analysis of how Iran’s economy will move forward, astutely noting possibilities and pitfalls. getAbstract highly recommends this enlightening report to foreign investors and business executives wishing to do business with Iran.

Take-Aways

  • The January 2016 lifting of international economic sanctions opens Iran for business with other countries.
  • Iran’s real GDP, which contracted an aggregate 4% since 2010, is forecast to increase steadily from 4.5% in 2016 to 5.5% in 2020.
  • The country plans to expand oil exports by 700,000 barrels per day by the end of 2016, but weak world demand for oil presents a challenge.
