Project Description

The overall objective of the project is to sustain reform momentum and foster enterprise creation and growth in the DRC through targeted investment climate reform. In particular, the program aims at (a) encouraging business formalization (which in turn facilitates access to finance); (b) streamlining and strengthening construction permitting. As a result, we expect an increase in the number of registered (formalized) companies.
