Since early 1986, The Government of Tanzania has, with determination, launched a comprehensive economic reform and stabilisation programme. In pursuit of this, agricultural marketing has been liberalised, foreign exchanged controls have been lifted, price deregulated, enhanced private sector involvement in the economy through privatisation programme and a new investment code offering competitive incentives has been put in place. These comprehensive economic reforms have resulted into improved competitiveness, lower tariffs, increasing levels of foreign investment and trade, improved key economic indictors and rapid integration into world markets. To this end, the Government of Tanzania is currently embarking on a strenuous exercise to upgrade its institutions and bring them at par with international standards. The expectation is to enhance the country's competitive position for investment flows destined for the region and meet the challenges of globalisation.
