A meeting was held at the Business Association of Georgia with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) mission, where the country's business environment and current economic trends were discussed.

During the meeting, the attendees thoroughly reviewed the country's business environment, along with the sentiments and expectations of the private sector. Against this backdrop, special emphasis was placed on the dynamics of attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) and the prospects in this direction. A significant part of the discussion was dedicated to analyzing the volatility of fuel and fertilizer prices on global markets, which directly impacts both the agricultural sector and the overall operational costs of the private sector. The conversation also touched upon the reforms and corresponding legislative changes initiated by the government.

The Executive Director of the Business Association of Georgia, Levan Vepkhvadze, presented the preliminary results of the first quarter BAG Index to the mission representatives, which will be published in the near future.

"The Business Association of Georgia actively cooperates with international financial organizations, among which the IMF holds a distinguished place. It is an honor for us that during their visits, the Fund's mission always expresses a desire to visit the Business Association of Georgia to hear the sentiments and assessments within the business community. This time as well, we discussed the country's economic parameters and current challenges affecting the business sector with the International Monetary Fund mission," stated Levan Vepkhvadze, Executive Director of the Business Association of Georgia.
