Security Responsibilities for Foreign Investors Imposed on Pakistani Entrepreneurs

In a recent article, the Pakistani national government, in conjunction with regional entities, has raised the interesting suggestion that those Pakistani entrepreneurs who pursue foreign investment be responsible in large part for the security of any visiting investors. By developing new security standards, including the certification of hosting entrepreneurs, it is hoped that recent "unpleasant incidents" may be avoided, thus encouraging those foreign investors who may have shunned Pakistan due to security concerns.
