ALGIERS – Algeria has, for the first time, progressed in the World Bank’s Doing Business 2017 ranking (DB 2017), said Wednesday Minister of Industry and Mining Abdesslam Bouchouareb, in reaction to the ranking published Tuesday in Washington.

As such, Algeria “breaks a period of decrease, even if DB 2017 evaluation has not included all the reforms,” some of which have been launched after the evaluation closing like the new Investment Bill.
“We are determined to pursue the reforms to achieve the new investment policy and relaunch the industrial development of which the promotion of the business climate is an essential element,” he added.
Bouchouareb said that the improvement of business climate is a «longstanding objective” and an “ongoing collective action” we work for efficiently through the National Doing Business Committee which brings together the government and the social partners (Employers and Union).
On the ground, “we feel things are evolving in the right direction,” he stressed.
Moreover, “we will deeply examine the report to identify and refine measures that could integrate our actions,” underscored the minister.
