Otherwise, the private sector in Tajikistan will continue to have to cope with an unclear and overly cumbersome regulatory and institutional framework that stifles competition, increases the cost and risk of doing business, and discourages innovation and risk taking. 2014-08-21T20:47:07Z 2014-08-21T20:47:07Z 2007-04-09 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2007/04/7690705/republic-tajikistan-private-sector-development-strategy http://hdl.handle.net/10986/19615 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Policy Note Economic & Sector Work Europe and Central Asia Tajikistan
