If the project is eliminated, European policymakers will be denied important information that could help to guide discussions about enhancing competitiveness. For example, registering property in Greece is more difficult than in Djibouti; enforcing a contract in Italy takes roughly three times as long as it does in Vietnam; and starting a business in Spain takes roughly 3.5 times longer than in Azerbaijan.
最后，尽管《营商环境报告》注意力集中在帮助最贫困国家改善经济表现，但它也影响着发达国家决策者和商业行为。如果该项目被取缔，欧洲决策者将无法获得能指导关于增强竞争力的讨论的重要信息。比如，在希腊注册产权比在吉布提还要难；强制执行合同在意大利所耗费的时间三倍于越南；而在西班牙开办企业所需要的时间比在阿塞拜疆长3.5倍。
