Resumen
Descripción
This Investment Climate Assessment is
based on an analysis of data collected in the Investment
Climate Survey of manufacturing firms in Tanzania. The
survey was conducted between April and July 2003 by the
World Bank and the Economic and Social Research Foundation
(ESRF) in Dar es Salaam, in collaboration with the National
Bureau of Statistics (NBS). The assessment compares measures
of firm performance and the investment climate in Tanzania
with similar measures in Kenya, Uganda, India, and China.
The report makes policy recommendations that include
reducing the burden of taxation, improving the performance
of the power sector, enhancing the effectiveness of
financial services and access to credit, reducing
corruption, maintaining macroeconomic stability, improving
ties to the international economy, and increasing productivity.
