He said the registration move being facilitated in partnership with Moniepont was to stimulate economic growth, foster regulatory compliance, and encourage economic development through taxation revenue.

 

The commission has been grappling with low registration of businesses in the country, hence the formalisation of these enterprises is crucial for economic growth and access to financial opportunities.
