GETTING CREDIT<br />
What are the changes over time?<br />
While the most recent <strong>Doing</strong> <strong>Business</strong> data reflect how<br />
well the credit information system and collateral and<br />
bankruptcy laws in <strong>Burundi</strong> support lending and<br />
borrowing today, data over time can help show where<br />
institutions and regulations have been strengthened—<br />
and where they have not (table 6.1). That can help<br />
identify where the potential for improvement is<br />
greatest.<br />

Note: n.a. = not applicable (the economy was not included in <strong>Doing</strong> <strong>Business</strong> for that year). DB2012 rankings shown are not last<br />
year’s published rankings but comparable rankings for DB2012 that capture the effects of such factors as data corrections and<br />
the addition of 2 economies (Barbados and Malta) to the sample this year.<br />
