Deputy Minister:
OIETAI ready to facilitate stronger presence of foreign investors in Iran
The Organization for Investment, Economic & Technical Assistance of Iran (OIETAI) is prepared to expedite legal processes and provide technical assistance to create conditions for a more active presence of foreign investors in the country, said the head of the organization.
Abolfazl Kodehei, during a meeting on Tuesday with Hassan Argi, Iran’s commercial attaché in Hungary, emphasized investment procedures, adding, “Iran’s commercial attachés in Hungary play a valuable role in attracting foreign investors. We therefore urge them to intensify their efforts in line with organizational objectives.”
The deputy minister of economy also stressed the necessity of greater cohesion among executive bodies to realize this year’s slogan of “Investment for Production,” stating, “Convergence between the Trade Promotion Organization of Iran (TPOI) and the OIETAI can have a significant impact.”
Strengthening economic cooperation with Hungary
Referring to his recent meeting with the Hungarian Ambassador to Tehran, Kodehei remarked, “Given the economic potential between the two countries, there is a suitable environment for expanding cooperation across various sectors.”
“Since the Ministry of Economy chairs the joint economic commission between the two countries, we are prepared to expedite and pursue matters related to Hungarian investors by providing exceptional legal facilities,” he underlined.
Argi also expressed hope that he could “serve as an effective element in advancing exports, not only in trade and commerce but also in the field of investment.”
“Given the approach of the Head of the Trade Development Organization and the management of the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Hungary, effective steps can be taken to attract investors from Hungary and other parts of the European Union through collaboration with Iranian ambassadors in target countries,” he said.
