Tatarstan entrepreneurs were reminded about changes in legislation from September 1

The SME Corporation has launched a regular legislative digest to simplify the activities of small and medium-sized businesses.

The SME Corporation has started to produce a legislative digest designed for small and medium-sized businesses. It will be published regularly and inform entrepreneurs about current changes in the regulatory framework. This will allow them not to waste time updating information about changes in laws on their own and concentrate on business processes, said Alexander Isaevich, CEO of SME Corporation.

"Businesses, especially small ones, spend a lot of resources on daily activities, and in this regard, entrepreneurs do not always have time to track changes in the legislative sphere. Entrepreneurs themselves tell us about this problem regularly at meetings during our trips to the regions. In response to this request and to help all business representatives, we have begun to issue a legislative digest prepared by lawyers of the SME Corporation. It will allow you to get all the necessary information in a concentrated form, without having to search for it from various sources," Alexander Isaevich stressed.

The first issue of the legislative digest of the SME Corporation is devoted to changes in the regulatory framework, which begin to take effect in September.
