Introduction In order to expand an existing company into an international market, there is a need to review the legal environment to ensure that the market penetration and general performance are sustainable. Global Logistics is a successful freight service company based in Europe. The company is interested in tapping the Asian market to offer freight logistics services and has selected Bangladesh as the regional host for its activities. This paper examines Bangladesh’s legal business environment in comparison with the European market. The rationale for Selecting Bangladesh Bangladesh operates under the free market economy model, thus, all business variables are liberalized from internal and external forces. This means that EnGlobal will not face limitations as a result of extreme government interventions. Bangladesh is also centrally located and neighbors China, Nepal, India, Maynmar, and Bhutan. Thus, the freight logistics market penetration in South Asia will be easier through Bangladesh. In addition, the high population estimated at 163 million will provide a ready market for EnGlobal Logistics’ services. In addition, though the official language in Bangladesh is Bengali, a sizable population can speak in English, thus, minimal cultural or language barriers (Index of Economic Freedom, 2018). These factors guarantee EnGlobal Logistics’ profitability and sustainable market operations. General Overview of the Legal Business Environment Despite the relatively positive score in the market and economic variables that support business operations, Bangladesh is notorious for disrespect of the rule of law and weak legal regulations that govern business. For instance, most property laws are antiquated besides uneven enforcement. There are few legal structures to enforce the existing commercial laws. As a result, some entities rely on the jangle laws in protecting their business interests. Bangladesh’s judiciary can be described as lacking independence and vulnerable to political manipulation (Sakib, 2016). This means that the enforcement of business contracts and resolution of disputes is inefficient. Bangladesh is one of the most corrupt business environments in the South Asian region. Moreover, commerce-related criminal acts such as extortion and bribery are common occurrences. The existing business laws are weak in terms of implementation and accurate justice in the local courts. This means that a third party can divert the course of justice as long as the interests of the law enforcers are taken care of. In addition, the limited bureaucratic transparency is challenged in meeting the government conditions to that comply with the commerce laws (Sakib, 2016). Lastly, the extremely polarized political system has undermined the ability of the government of the day to effectively accountable to the business community despite the double tax regime (US Department of State, 2018). For instance, anticorruption efforts are often neutralized by a politicized law enforcement process that makes it easy to subvert justice.
