Why did you choose the USA?
Robert Jaś, president of the management board of Metropolitan Investment in Miami: It is the best place to do business, especially for our company which looks for investors for property development projects. So where else is it better to look for business partners than the place where they are concentrated in their largest numbers and which is visited by investors from around the world? We considered a number of locations in the US: New York, Los Angeles and Miami. Our research showed that Miami would be the most suitable for us. This is because it has lower barriers to entry in regard to labour costs and investment as well as its location on the east coast which allows us to work with our Polish office. Florida’s GDP is similar to that of Turkey and over 5 pct of its population hold liquid assets worth over USD 1 mln.
