Continued promotion of Serbia on Doing Business List

Belgrade, 12 October 2016

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure Zorana Mihajlovic today chaired a meeting of the Working Group of the placement of Serbia in the Doing Business List of the World Bank.

It was agreed that this year Serbia will make progress on the abovementioned list, which ranks 189 countries in the world, and on which our country has progressed in the past year by as many as 32 positions, from the 91st to the 59th place.

At the meeting it was stressed that this year Serbia will make progress in five areas, and the best results are achieved in categories reflecting the issuance of building permits and paying taxes.

Mihajlovic therefore announced the formation of a working group to evaluate the reform of legislation before the drafts of these regulations are sent to the government of Serbia for adoption.

In this way, we will provide better placement of our country in the next ranking on the Doing Business List, she said.

The next Doing Business List of the World Bank, which measures and ranks the reform results and business conditions in 189 countries around the world, will be published soon, according to a statement from the Office of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure.
