Hungary is an industrial country with a dynamic economy and ranks 57th largest among all other economies in the world out of 188 countries. The country has a well-developed construction industry, textile, mining, pharmaceutical industries. The agricultural sector is also developing steadily. Hungarian legislation also provides for the likelihood of opening branches and representative offices in their country for both local and foreign companies. All obligations under the branch will be bear by the parent company. Hungary is not as rich in natural resources as its trading partners, but despite this, the country’s economy is export-oriented with an emphasis on international trade.
