Zurich, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – Switzerland is second only to Germany overall as a desirable location for a company, 20 percent of managers from 700 countries around the world answered in a survey by Ernst & Young. The management consulting firm’s latest report on worldwide business locations gives a mixed picture: the country’s sound banking system is seen as a point in its favour, while its appeal for tax purposes pushes it down to 11th place.
It received strong votes for administration, logistics and distribution, but high on the list of challenges faced by Switzerland if it wants to remain competitive are entrepreneurship and innovation.
