There is a growing demand for private sector development policy advice in non-OECD economies which increasingly requires a horizontal, cross-issue approach. The OECD has launched programmes is several regions to assist with developing and implementing effective policy reforms to enhance investment, competitiveness, and private sector development:
The main results from these regional initiatives will be:
-
A first comparative overview of where the countries stand on policies relevant to both domestic, intra-regional and international investment and private sector development covering the areas included in the OECD Policy Framework for Investment and the Investment Reform Index;
-
Guidelines on how to design and implement reforms in the target policy areas that are adapted to the historical and cultural context of the participating countries and target measures for capacity building using OECD tools and methodologies;
-
A sustainable process for regional co-operation, based on expert working groups;
-
One or two country-specific pilots to identify and remove sector specific barriers through policy reform.
The expected outcome of the initiatives is sustainable economic development and political stability through regional cooperation, public-private dialogue and policy transparency.
