A text at the heart of economic issues
The bill relating to the Foreign Exchange Code stands among legislative files with strong economic significance. It directly concerns the organization of exchange rules, financial transactions, and operations related to businesses and economic actors.
This text is of particular importance in that it could have an impact on the business climate, investment, exports, as well as the fluidity of financial exchanges between Tunisia and abroad.
The CONECT invited to present its observations
During this hearing, CONECT should present its remarks and proposals concerning the content of this bill, notably on its potential repercussions for businesses, investors, and economic operators.
Representatives of the Confederation should also outline their vision regarding the adjustments necessary to ensure a framework better suited to the needs of businesses and the requirements of the current economic situation.
A consultative approach around the new code
The CONECT hearing is part of a consultative approach undertaken by the Finance and Budget Committee, which aims to gather the views of the various parties concerned by this project, particularly organizations representing the economic fabric.
This session will allow Members of Parliament to learn the position of economic actors before continuing the examination of the articles and provisions of the bill.
Through this debate, the objective is to arrive at a text capable of modernizing the legal framework for foreign exchange in Tunisia, while taking into account the imperatives related to investment, the financing of enterprises, and the opening of the national economy.
