| Summary: | The doing business indicators have
served as a trigger for countries to identify and implement
business environment reforms. In response to client demand
for technical assistance in the areas measured by doing
business, the World Bank Group launched the doing business
reform advisory (DBRA) unit in 2007. In the subsequent
decade, the team assisted 117 governments with 664 reforms.
The report takes stock of these results and identifies key
lessons learned. The report identifies key features of
successful reformers, which include adopting a high-level,
long-term vision to improve the business environment,
leading reform programs at the highest level of government,
promoting evidence-based policies and data-driven
decision-making, and involving the private sector for reform
design, accountability and impact. These are among the key
principles that underpin the design of the country programs
and its reforms. It further illustrates how the adaptability
and capacity to evolve into new areas have been essential in
the face of growing client demand. |
