As part of the Cooperation Network and Program
of post-investment (aftercare) support to investors in BiH, representatives of
the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency (FIPA), the Ministry of Economy of
Sarajevo Canton and Hadzici Municipality, visited Wurth BH doo, a company for
assembly equipment. During the meeting with the company representatives
information on company's operations were
exchanged as well as the identification
and resolution of open issues were discussed, in order to encourage the growth
and development of companies in BiH.
The director of the company Mr. Adnan
Topčagić and the director of finance and accounting, Armina Sakoč, presented
the current situation regarding the business of Wurth BH doo, plans for the
future period, especially in terms of capacity expansion, new investments and
new employment, and pointed out that there is a possibility for improvement and
development, especially if there would be a greater understanding of the
authorities for the real problems of businessmen and greater support to
economic entities, primarily in creating more transparent and improved business
environment.
They especially emphasized the need for
all levels of governments to work on creating an equal business climate for all
business entities, legal security and the rule of law as a fundamental effort
of a democratic society which by definition means: that law be general,
accessible to all, not backwards, understandable, consistent, stable, that it
is possible to implement and that it is possible to follow it, and they see
this as the best way to attract quality foreign investment.
