2017 displaying a better business climate despite being an election year: BS’a Bregasi

Despite being an election year, 2017 has been favorable for businesses operating in Albania, claims the head of BiznesAlbania Luan Bregasi in a SCAN TV interview.

According to Bregasi, the increasing forecast for economic growth from 3.5% to 3.8% creates a good and stable climate for business.

“I think business by its nature is optimistic. We hope things will go better. The fact that economic growth was 3.4% last year and 3.5% this year means that there will be a better relaxation of the Albanian economy and certainly of the Albanian business. So I think this year, despite being an election year and having its own impact on the economy, it will be better for private entrepreneurship.”

The head of “BiznesAlbania” praised the recent DP-SP political agreement as a green light for business, adding that a stable political situation paves way for development of projects and investments.

“Business does not require favors, it does not require differentiation, it does not require privileges. Businesses want a stable political environment, they require fair, honest competition, they require equality in the market, a public administration that serves and creates the opportunity to carry out its affairs. If that is the case then the business is correct.”

The business climate in Albania is also appreciated by the World Bank Report.

Doing Business praised the business climate in Albania, where the country was the 58th in the world climbing 32 positions compared to the previous year.
