Private Sector

Mandated by Pacific Islands Forum Leaders through the Forum Compact, the Forum Secretariat convenes an annual platform for  political dialogue with the private sector. The purpose of the Dialogue is to foster the reforms required for  private sector growth and employment generation, with the intention being, political interventions could advance more rapidly, private sector growth. In the main, Private Sector Dialogue desires

  • a high-level discussion forum in which private sector views on such reforms can be aired;
  • stronger partnerships between the private sector and Forum governments and development partners; and
  • building a stronger shared understanding of the economic, trade and regulatory policies that enable private sector growth

The Forum Secretariat focuses its attention on areas of private sector development where it has a comparative advantage through its association with Global Partners, Trade Policy, Regional Trade Agreements, the Pacific Trade Invest network, National Chambers of Commerce and with CROP Agencies, to facilitate, coordinate and deliver tailor made solutions for governments and enterprises alike.
