Policymakers have initiated a number of measures in the past to reduce the bureaucratic burden on companies. Nevertheless, entrepreneurs perceive an increase in requirements.
In order to really achieve a turnaround, the following aspects are required, according to studies by the IfM in Bonn: a paradigm shift in the entire regulatory cycle, the implementation of the ‘SME first principle’ and the increased use of digitisation and artificial intelligence in the administration. Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Friederike Welter (IfM Bonn/University of Siegen) presented these aspects in detail at the plenary assembly of the Bonn/Rhein-Sieg Chamber of Commerce and Industry in mid-March.
