The Investor's Guide to Hungary

Hungary is evolving. It remains a popular location for Shared Service Centres (SSC) and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) thanks to its multilingual talent pool, comparatively low costs, and lucrative governmental incentives. However, Hungary’s economy is diversifying, and the country is attracting a far greater variety of businesses than ever before.
