Legislative Work and the Drafting of Regulatory Legal Acts in Kyrgyzstan
Business development in Kyrgyzstan depends to a large extent on the regulatory environment and on changes in legislation. In practice, taking part in law-making processes makes it possible to understand the direction in which state regulation is developing, to have business interests reflected in the drafting of regulatory legal acts, and to adapt to planned changes in good time.
The lawyers of Baker Tilly Bishkek Legal take part in preparing proposals and drafting amendments to the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic, including within projects implemented by government authorities with the support of international financial institutions.
