Industry-Specific Policy Reform

The objective of IFC PEP-MENA’s Industry-Specific Policy Reform Program is to strengthen market signals by improving policies to make it easier for existing and potential entrepreneurs to exploit new investment opportunities.

Industrial diversification tends to be weak in the Middle East and North Africa. In many countries, several industries with good export and growth potential remain small and informal, unable to compete internationally and attract sizable domestic or foreign investment capital due to obstacles, such as unfriendly business regulations and inefficient public services.

IFC PEP-MENA engages in a select number of key industries to help governments identify and remove these constraints through targeted reform efforts.
