Message from the President of Afghanistan
Afghanistan today is the land of countless business opportunities. Despite persistent successes in making Afghanistan a place suitable for investment, an important policy decision we have made is the creation of the Afghanistan Investment Support Agency (AISA); a one-stop shop to serve the interests and needs of investors. AISA has been charged with the responsibility to facilitate registration, licensingS and promotion of all investments in Afghanistan. It concentrates on pro-active measures to attract industrial investment from both within and outside Afghanistan, thus generating employment and economic growth. Towards the achievement of these goals, AISA has my full support.
