Creating the National Business Agenda in Moldova

A new video has been added to CIPE’s YouTube channel. It features an interview with Igor Munteanu, Executive Director of the Institute for Development and Social Initiatives IDIS Viitorul in Moldova. His organization has been working with CIPE on creating a National Business Agenda (NBA), the first such document drafted by the Moldovan private sector. NBA is a vital tool for the business community to encourage investment and stimulate business activity and economic growth. Developing an agenda mobilizes the business community to use its skills to effect public policy reform by setting legislative and regulatory priorities and clearly communicating them to policymakers. NBAs identify laws and regulations that hinder business activity. They also offer concrete recommendations and reforms to remove these barriers and improve the business climate. For more information see CIPE’s National Business Agenda Guidebook.
