Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to measure the risks that business

enterprises might face when doing business in Palestine. To achieve this

purpose, the descriptive analytical methodology was employed as it suits

this kind of research. A questionnaire reflecting the main variables of the

research was prepared and distributed to a sample of 120 business men and

50 high ranked government employees in four ministries concerned directly

with economic affairs. The research came up with a main conclusion that- the

overall- business environment in Palestinian territories is considered risky.

When analyzing the two samples independently, the results showed that the

attitudes of businessmen towards the business environment were negative to

some extent, whereas the high ranked government employees showed more

positive attitudes. Finally, the research put forward a set of recommendations,

in various spheres, to improve the overall investment climate in Palestine.
