Kyrgyzstan was included in the top 20 countries-reformers of the Doing Business 2020 rating published by the World Bank.
According to the World Bank, the Kyrgyz Republic has improved its performance on the following indicators: "Connections to the electricity grid", "Taxation" and "Obtaining a credit".
In particular, the indicator of " Connections to the electricity grid " has improved due to increased control over disconnections and modernization of infrastructure.
The study also noted the reforms of the " Obtaining a credit " and "Taxation" indicator by improving the system of credit bureaus and simplifying reporting and tax payment procedures.
In the top 20 reformers' countries, the World Bank is selecting countries that have implemented reforms to facilitate doing business in three or more of the 10 areas included in this year's Ease of Doing Business Index. The regulatory changes that make it difficult to do business are subtracted from those that make it easier to do business. The choice of the most improved economies is determined by the most significant improvements in ease of doing business among those who have implemented at least three reforms.
The official publication and presentation of the Doing Business 2020 rating will be presented at the end of October 2019.
