Strong and effective commercial law is the foundation of a dynamic business environment. In this context, the Arab Centre for the Development of the Rule of Law and Integrity (ACRLI) held a session on a Regional Approach for Commercial Law reform in the context of the MENA OECD Business Forum to discuss issues related to strengthening demand-side commercial law reform in the MENA region. The meeting which comes in the broader framework of the MENA Commercial Law Strengthening (CLS) project, implemented by ACRLI in co-operation with the Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) was held in Marrakech on 22 November 2009.

Besides the IAG members, the meeting also included prominent participants from the Moroccan legal community, since this meeting acted as an opportunity to exchange lessons learned and disseminate the acquired knowledge on a broader perspective.
