Summary: | This report is one of six gender and
investment climate reform assessments undertaken in six
Pacific nations including Tonga. The report analyzes
gender-based investment climate barriers which constrain
private sector development and identifies solutions to
address them. Four key investment climate areas are
considered: public private dialogue; starting and licensing
a business; access to justice, the courts, and mediation;
and access to and enforcement of rights over registered
land. In each area the report considers legal, regulatory,
and administrative barriers to private sector development
with a gender perspective. It makes recommendations aimed at
ensuring that women benefit from ongoing efforts to improve
Tonga’s investment climate on the same basis as their male
counterparts. For more publications on IFC Sustainability
