Efficient business law and registration is very important. It's practically the secret ingredient of the "Anglosphere". Similarly the UK and Ireland have a big advantage in ease of company registration compared to the average EU country. Estonia have made a deliberate effort to copy this.

The book The Other Path has a fantastic account of how improving business law was a key ingredient in stabilising Peru and defeating Shining Path. (Should be taken with a grain of salt, but it's a fantastic idea)

Note that this does not require it to be made anti-employee or anti-consumer! It just has to be clear, simple, effectively and fairly enforced.

This and trust, which... derives from good law and good courts.

Everywhere else in the world everything must be in triplicate at the very least.
