Eliminates bureaucratic obstacles to attract private investments
11 Jan 2018On 11 January 2018, the Government published a decree with 170 measures that will eliminate rules and regulations that are considered to reduce the country's competitiveness to attract private investment. Among others, the decree will eliminate the Industrial Registry of the Nation (RIN), created in 1972 and that requires the registration of all companies, a process that demanded eight months. Other bureaucratic obstacles will also be reduced, such as the need for the president to authorize the installation of new automotive terminals.
