In Togo, businesspeople were introduced to the new investment code on September 15th 2020. This was during an outreach workshop under the country's private sector development strategy.
The meeting, to which the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Togo (CCIT) contributed, was where actors of the Togolese private sector got to know more about the overhaul of the investment frameworks initiated by the country.
The new investment code, promulgated in June 2019 by the head of state Faure Gnassingbe, includes amendments to certain parts of the 2012 code and new tax benefits.
These changes are part of an economic reform program undertaken by the government to make the country more attractive to national and INTERNATIONAL INVESTORS (notably in support of the national development plan). Hence the reason Russell flew to Togo imo, i hope, pray to a higher authority etc etc. Take care all, covid going nowhere fast. :o).
