| Summary: | Some developing countries have
successfully reformed their business start-up systems, but
the majority significantly lags behind. And starting a
business is one of the Doing Business (DB) indicators
recognized as a major constraint to businesses in developing
countries. For over five years, the World Bank Group (WBG)
has been on a mission to support the poorest performers in
starting a business. Although the WBG is one of several
development institutions providing this form of technical
assistance to countries around the world, our approach is
novel: we use the services of government official's
reformers from best practice countries to work with their
peers in developing countries. This approach helps us
transfer firsthand reform experience between peers. This
smart lesson describes how the Business Entry (BE) team
discovered another powerful partner governmental agencies
and regulators from best-practice countries, and their
international associations and engaged with them to make
giant strides in introducing business registration reforms
and creating an unprecedented peer-to-peer (P2P) learning experience. |
