Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf on Friday directed Board of Investment (BoI) to expedite its restructuring and introduce one-window operation to further facilitate investors in the country. The Prime Minister was talking to Salim Mandviwala, Chairman Board of Investment (BoI) who called on him at the PM House here to apprise him about BoI's measures to attract investment.

Prime Minister Ashraf said that Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Act, 2012, has been enacted to attract Foreign Direct Investment in the country. He said the establishment of SEZs would attract both domestic as well as international investors. He hoped that the SEZs would play a pivotal role in national economic development.
