The US Department of Commerce Commercial Law Development Program (CLDP) aims to improve the legal environment for doing business in countries around the globe, thereby fostering greater political stability and economic opportunities.  CLDP consultative services and programs assist political, regulatory, judicial and commercial leaders to augment their policies, laws and organizational structures.

In recent years, Morocco, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain have passed new insolvency laws that are in line with international best practices and present these countries as effective partners in the global economy. These laws allow for civil protection from creditors and for restructuring of companies in financial peril. Kuwait is also in the process of reforming its own insolvency law to bring it into compliance with international standards.
