They also called upon the government to take “practical action” to improve the ease of doing business. They noted that the policy reform process in Bangladesh has proved “to be lengthy and complex”. The EU-Bangladesh Business Climate Dialogue was initiated in May 2016 between the EU Business Council in Dhaka and the commerce ministry to jointly remove impediments that obstruct EU trade and investment in Bangladesh. The heads of mission underlined that the Business Climate Dialogue is a good opportunity for Bangladesh to seek feedback from important EU stakeholders on improving the business environment and, by doing so, attract more EU trade and investment to the country. “EU as Bangladesh’s largest trade, development and humanitarian partner will continue to work constructively with the government of Bangladesh towards better trade and investment relations.”The next dialogue will be held in six months.
