Bulgaria boasts Europe’s lowest public deficit rates and it grew at a rate of 2% in the first quarter of 2015, despite last year’s collapse of its fourth largest bank (Corporate Commercial Bank). Bulgaria has the lowest tax rates in the region –a 10% rate both on personal income and corporate income – as well as a bilateral treaty that allows for the avoidance of double- taxation with the United States. The global financial crisis slowed investment growth, particularly in the real estate and manufacturing sectors, but as the European economy recovers, investment may pick up in certain sectors.
