The Board of Investment (BOI), the government agency for the facilitation and promotion of investment in Mauritius, acts as the facilitator for all forms of investment in Mauritius and guides investors through the necessary processes for doing business in the country.Mauritius is among the freest and most business-friendly countries in Africa according to a number of surveys and metrics. The 2015 Index of Economic Freedom, published annually by The Wall Street Journal and The Heritage Foundation, ranks Mauritius as the 10th freest economy in the world and the 1st out of the 46 countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. For the seventh consecutive year, the World Bank's 2015 Doing Business report ranks Mauritius first among African economies (28th worldwide) in terms of overall ease of doing business.
