Achieving growth rate of 5.5% in 2020 is impossible without easing pressure on economic enterprises (CONECT)

CONECT International president Monia Saidi underlined that "achieving a growth rate of 5.5% by 2020 in line with the objectives of the five-year plan 2016-2020 is impossible in the absence of economic and social measures to alleviate the pressure on the Tunisian economic enterprises ".

She added during a meeting held by the Committee on Finance, Planning and Development in the House of the People's Representatives (HPR) for the hearing of the Confederation of Tunisian Citizen Enterprises (CONECT) on the plan that the absence of such measures provokes the reluctance of local and international investors to create projects and has contributed to the decline in the growth rate to 1% in 2016.

Saidi stressed that "the improvement of the business climate cannot take place" without the adoption of a clear strategy based on the establishment of e-government, achievement of regional development, strengthening of transport and logistics likely to consolidate partnership with foreign markets and attract investors ".
