Doing Business in the European Union
2017 focuses on business regulations and their enforcement
in five Doing Business areas. It goes beyond Sofia, Budapest
and Bucharest to benchmark 19 additional cities. The annual
Doing Business report aims to draw attention to how red tape
affects small and medium-size businesses and encourage
governments to look outward to learn from global good
practices. This report highlights differences both among and
within countries. Differences in regulatory performance
across locations can help national and local policy makers
to identify priority areas for reform and to find good
practices that can guide the way forward. Good local and
global practices are identified throughout the report, as
well as opportunities for regulatory reform in each country.
The study’s results are revealing: the gap between the
benchmarked cities is significant, even within the same
country—with the biggest regulatory differences found within
Bulgaria and Romania. Yet each country also has cities that
are world class in at least one area. This study will
benefit our partner countries as a tool to promote
competition between the cities and regions, to encourage
peer learning, and to inspire policy makers to improve the
ease of doing business in their jurisdictions. Small
administrative improvements can make a big difference in the
life of small firms—unlike larger businesses that face the
same bureaucratic inefficiencies, they do not have access to
the resources and skills needed to get better and faster service. |
