The objective of the Compact is to lay the economic and structural policy foundations for sustained growth and development in South Eastern Europe. The Compact sets out a number of commitments for policy reform which countries in the region need to implement in order to create a robust and sustainable market economy and to encourage increasing local and foreign direct investment.
 

The Investment Compact was formally approved at the meeting of Working Table II in February 2000 in Skopje. A draft Roadmap for the implementation of the Compact was developed, setting out a three-phase approach:

  1. Diagnosis of current investment conditions in the countries of the region (already finished).
  2. Development of country specific policy recommendations and design of regional policy initiatives.
  3. Monitoring of progress in policy implementation, improvement of the investment conditions and  investment performance in South East Europe.
