„We expect to finalise a document that would be a programmatic document and we would like to present it to authorities and public next week“, the Deputy Head of the EU Delegation to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dr Renzo Daviddi, said in the opening address.
„There is substantial lack of economic policy talks in the politics of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is strange when knowing that economic issues are considered by the citizens of this country as the most relevant ones for them“, Dr Daviddi concluded.
Other key speakers of the Forum for Prosperity in Jobs in BiH follow up seminar in Banja Luka were the Ambassador of Norway to BiH, Ms. Anne Vibeke Lilloe, the Governor of the BiH Central Bank, Mr Kemal Kozaric, and the Dean of the Faculty of Economics, University of Banja Luka, Mr Novak Kondic.
The seminar gathered government representatives, economic experts, representatives of domestic and international financial institutions and business organisations, and other stakeholders. It also included leading experts from neighbouring countries who shared their experience in dealing with similar problems. Participants discussed important economic issues within three panels: ‘Investment and Doing Business’, ‘Taxes, Benefits and Government Expenditure’ and ‘Labour Markets and Enterprise Expenditure’.
