Costs of Doing Business Investigation and Reduction Strategies. ‌ The PES and the Dutch government commit themselves to understanding and mitigating the costs of doing business and the drivers behind the rising costs, specifically when it comes to importing goods or services from abroad. This is an important economic challenge for the island, which also has a negative effect on consumers. The lack of clarity surrounding these drivers necessitates thorough research to discern the specific areas where cost escalations occur. The PES requests the Dutch government to conduct an investigation into the steps within the chain of importing goods, tracking the steps and costs associated with each step. This includes, but is not limited to: supplier selection, supplier prices, import license(s), transportation and logistics8, payment of customs duties and taxes, customs clearance and distribution. This research will serve as the cornerstone for implementing structural solutions aimed at reducing the overall cost of doing business. Agreement The Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate (EZK) and the PES will examine the possibilities for this investigation. The ambitions for this investigation are as follows: • Identify Key Cost Drivers: Gain insights into the primary cost drivers that significantly impact the cost of living and doing business on Xxxx. • Rate of Cost Increase and Exploring Cost-Reduction Opportunities: Comprehend the rate at which costs are escalating and the underlying reasons driving these increases. Based on this, explore various opportunities and strategies that have the potential to lower the costs. • An independent investigation will be carried out with the explicit goal of identifying key cost drivers, rates of cost increases and possible cost-reduction opportunities. • Action Plan Development: Based on the outcomes and recommendations of the independent investigation, the PES will draft in cooperation with relevant ministries a comprehensive action plan designed to lower the cost of doing business.
