The Minister of Economy, María Luisa Hayem, announced that the Government of El Salvador has achieved a progress of more than 85% in the execution of the 2024 Action Plan, a key strategy to boost foreign investment. In a recent interview, the minister detailed that 11 measures and 26 activities have been implemented in collaboration with the business sector.
One of the pillars of this strategy has been the creation of an ecosystem that facilitates investment. According to Hayem, a clear example of the government’s comprehensive approach is the National Trade Facilitation Committee, where more than 17 government institutions and business associations work together. “This committee is key to ensuring the right environment for businesses”, the minister explained.
The salvadoran government’s strategy has also been publicized internationally. During a recent visit to Argentina, President Nayib Bukele carried the message that El Salvador has transformed its reality, now offering greater investment opportunities. “El Salvador is living a new history”, Hayem said, referring to the message shared by the president on his international tour.
The minister also stressed the importance of security in this process of economic transformation. According to her, the recovery of security has been key to the country’s development, allowing to provide greater freedom and stability to millions of families.
Hayem also emphasized that the government continues to work on measures that protect the family economy and improve public services. He also pointed out the efforts to eliminate bureaucracy and move towards a digital government that provides more agile services to businesses and the population.
