Conducting Business with
the Middle East

The State of Israel has an interest in bringing foreign investments .into the country, and provides strong incentives to that endThe Israeli market offers a plethora of opportunities to foreigners .who wish to join emerging enterprises right from the earliest stages

Over the years, Israel has built an outstanding reputation and has become fertile ground for the development of a wide range of large scale entrepreneurial activities in various high-tech and industrial areas, attracting investors to acquire equity in promising ventures.

The Israeli fiscal system encourages foreign residents to invest in Israel through tax benefits, exemptions, and deductions. There are several routes that lead to tax savings such as investing in companies with the Preferred Technological Enterprise Status, exemptions through certain types of entities, for capital gains, for interest income, VAT, and through tax refunds to foreign tax residents.

The main factor behind Israel’s global success in the technological arena has been the accelerated development and growth of a unique multi pronged ecosystem. The pillars that support this phenomenal achievement are: the spillover of technology developed for defense and security into civilian applications, the close ties between industry and academia, the establishment of R&D and operation centers by leading multinational giants in Israel, and of course, the synergies between all three.

Israel is perceived internationally as a tech superpower, a locomotive, and a true center of gravity for information and communications technologies. This is another reason why Israel constitutes a solid market for investments and transactions in income-producing real estate property. The country may not have been blessed with many natural resources or with the quietest geopolitical environment, but it makes up for it with the creativity, entrepreneurship, inventiveness, and action-orientation of its people.

In view of the newly signed peace accord between our countries, there’s nothing we’d like more than to foster new business relationships. We have formed a team of Israeli professionals who will assist companies operating in the United Arab Emirates and seeking to invest in Israel. Each one of us brings expertise in their field and an extensive network within the Israeli business, legal, media, and public sectors communities. Among others, we cover financial, real estate, and alternative investments. We know how to move quickly by offering reliable solutions that enable thriving, profitable partnerships to come to fruition.

Through our combined knowledge and experience, we offer foreign investors advice, and bring together investors, funds and companies with changing needs and diverse goals into ventures that yield the maximum benefit to all parties involved. We serve our clients at all stages of investment from establishing investment entities, choosing the right structure based on the pros and cons of each type of entity, the business model and vision of their shareholders, the scope of activities, decision making and of course, taxation and regulation. In addition, we can assist in formulating the right criteria based on the investor’s risk appetite and areas of interest.

The year 2021 is expected to be a great year for investing in Israel. We invite you to share in the success.
