EU-Sri Lanka Investor Dialogue

The EU-Sri Lanka Investor Dialogue is a platform established to strengthen trade and investment relations between the European Union and Sri Lanka. Launched in 2014 by the Board of Investment (BOI) of Sri Lanka and the EU Delegation, it facilitates discussions between EU investors and Sri Lankan government officials to address issues and promote investment opportunities.

The event is an annual roundtable where the EU delegation, government authorities, European diplomatic missions, heads of ministries, and ECCSL member companies discuss policy reforms. ECCSL members get a one-minute slot to express their concerns. 

Key aspects of the dialogue include:

  • 1.

    Investment Facilitation: The dialogue assists existing EU investors in Sri Lanka with resolving issues and encourages new investments by improving the business environment.
  • 2.

    Economic Cooperation: It supports Sri Lanka’s economic recovery and development, focusing on sectors such as trade, fisheries, agriculture, and infrastructure.
  • 3.

    Policy and Reform Discussions: The forum provides a platform for discussing fiscal policies, regulatory reforms, and initiatives aimed at streamlining the investment process and enhancing economic competitiveness.
  • 4.

    Quarterly Meetings: The group convenes quarterly to ensure regular and timely resolution of investor concerns.
