ENFORCING CONTRACTS
Economies in all regions have improved contract
enforcement in recent years. A judiciary can be
improved in different ways. Higher-income economies
tend to look for ways to enhance efficiency by
introducing new technology. Lower-income economies
often work on reducing backlogs by introducing
periodic reviews to clear inactive cases from the docket
and by making procedures faster. What reforms
making it easier (or more difficult) to enforce contracts
has Doing Business recorded in Burundi (table 10.2)?
Table 10.2 How has Burundi made enforcing contracts easier—or not?
