One method is for experts to analyse the current situation, as highlighted by the publication of a white paper identifying issues such as corruption. It is equally important to recognise the necessary reforms by considering the target audience&#8217;s needs. For instance, engaging with stakeholders who drive the economy&#8211;such as businesses, banks, and financial institutions&#8211;is crucial in economic reform. However, a significant gap exists in listening to small and medium enterprises (SMEs). While leaders of prominent business organisations, like FBCCI and BGMEA, can easily access policymakers, smaller players remain disorganised and voiceless, requiring government initiatives to bridge this gap. The current interim government has also fallen short in engaging with the business community. Reforms must be driven by experts, but those on the ground must be consulted. In reality, small businesses and the informal sector are often left out of such consultations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The informal sector, contributing significantly to GDP, is undervalued by policymakers, who view it as weak and in need of formalisation. This reflects a lack of understanding, as informality does not equate to fragility. Recognising the economic importance of the informal sector is essential for inclusive reform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The promotion of self-employment and entrepreneurship, while commendable, needs to align with the realities of the job market. Overemphasis on entrepreneurship without creating enough employment opportunities can lead to workforce shortages in critical industries like garment manufacturing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Identifying the need for reforms requires a systematic and inclusive approach.
