Are there difficulties for European investors in dealing with state and local governments?
• A: Americans are generally open to working with international companies and have no problems with foreigners wanting to establish businesses in their state or region. Some of the best resources available to European investors are the offices of the Council of American States in Europe (C.A.S.E.) who can assure that you do not get lost in a bureaucratic maze and can coordinate and assist with all aspects of the establishment of your U.S. business.
