One in three investors are not satisfied in the way they have to go through several Fiji government agencies to actually start their investment here.
Tebbutt Research CEO Caz Tebbutt presented findings of a research funded by the World Bank that showed that investors were not happy with the wait they had to endure to invest in the country.
According to the findings, the Immigration and Lands department topped the list of agencies that provided the most delays in investments.
This was part of the panel discussions at the Prime Minister’s Mini Economic National Summit which began in Lami today.
The research showed that 57 per cent of investors had to ask for information again so they could gather all they needed.
This itself has impacted on investment.
It also showed that some applications took 13 to 68 days and in a few cases one year to eventuate.
