ISLAMABAD:
The Board of Investment (BOI) has said that it is committed to implementing the agenda aimed at ensuring the ease of doing business and reducing the cost of doing business in order to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) into the country. “Pakistan has improved its ranking in the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business index by 11 points to 136 from 147,” said BOI Chairman Haroon Sharif while talking to APP on Thursday. Replying to a question, he said the Doing Business Report 2019, published by the World Bank, measured the ease of doing business in 190 countries of the world. He said Pakistan was gradually moving up and for next year the government had set ambitious targets to take the ranking below 100 in order to attract maximum foreign investment into the country.”
