To strengthen the role of the government in creating a favorable business environment, international experience was studied and, as a result, a draft of the relevant decree was prepared.
Within the framework of the Commission on improving the business environment and improving Azerbaijan’s positions in international ratings, a new version of the Competition Code has also been prepared.
