     World Bank representatives presented the steps to be taken in the investment policy and the role of state aid in ensuring competitiveness in the economy.

     During the workshop were exhibited different views on the topics mentioned above, including the importance of compliance with state aid rules, to avoid affecting undertakings, markets or even whole sectors of excess effort to attract new investment. The fact that competition is one of the basic factors in the economic development of the state was proven by exposing the danger of breaching rules and limits for granting state aid.
