A mandate was given by Federal Government of Nigeria to the National Planning Commission (NPC) to develop a blue print that will lead Nigeria to be among the top 20 economies of the world by the year 2020. In pursuance of this mandate, NPC created 29 National Technical Working Groups (NTWG) to address various thematic areas.
This report, of the Business Environment and Competitiveness Thematic Area of the National Technical Working Group (NTWG) for Vision 2020, focuses on how to create and maintain a business climate that is enabling, hospitable, and supportive of local and foreign investments. The overall objective being to reduce the cost of doing business in Nigeria, thereby making it easier for prospective and existing local and foreign investors to grow and expand their businesses profitably and with ease.
