In a time of global uncertainty and growing demand for stable, investor-friendly markets, Republika Srpska is positioning itself as one of the most promising and yet least discovered investment destinations in Southeast Europe, the Austrian-Serbian Business Forum announced today.
The forum highlighted that a delegation of the 15 most successful Austrian entrepreneurs of Serb origin recently visited Banja Luka, as part of a high-level business trip organized by the Austrian-Serbian Business Forum.
The host of the meeting was the President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, who organized a presentation of the region’s economic potential.
The talks focused on exceptionally favorable investment conditions: a corporate tax rate of only 10%, a stable business environment, the lowest electricity prices in the region, as well as a comprehensive system of subsidies and incentives for investors from BiH, Serbia, and abroad.
Mladen Filipović, representative of the Alliance of Serbs in Austria and head of the Republika Srpska Representative Office in Vienna, emphasized the strategic importance of economic cooperation with the diaspora and noted that many international companies are already operating successfully in Republika Srpska.
Serbian Ambassador to Austria Marko Blagojević, who also participated in the meeting, emphasized Serbia’s role in promoting economic ties with Republika Srpska and praised the importance of the Serb diaspora in building bridges between markets and cultures.
“Republika Srpska is emerging as a market with untapped potential, attractive business conditions, and a clear political will to cooperate with international partners.
For investors seeking new, dynamic, and sustainable opportunities, Republika Srpska is without a doubt a gem—ready to be discovered,” stated the Austrian-Serbian Business Forum.
