-Improving economic cooperation between the two countries
Marko
Kubatlija, Director of the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina,
met with the Ambassador of Romania to BiH H.E. Anton Pacuretu.
They
discussed the improvement of business relations between the two countries, the
cooperation of chambers of commerce and agencies for foreign investments, the
organization of business forums and meetings.
Director
Kubatlija informed the Ambassador about current Romanian investments in BiH and
foreign trade trends between the two countries, as well as the base of FIPA
investment projects, including investment locations, and services provided to
potential and existing foreign investors.
In the
last few years, the interest of foreign companies has increased in BiH and the
region, due to the efforts of companies to move production from certain
countries to locations closer to their home countries.
A large
number of European companies operating in Romania are considering relocating
part of their production to some of the countries in the region, due to the
lack of labour and increased operating costs, and this is an opportunity in
which Bosnia and Herzegovina sees a great opportunity.
