Mangochi, Malawi — In a landmark address at the 2026 Lakeshore Business Leaders’ Summit, Vice President Jane Ansah has assured the nation’s business community of policy consistency and improved engagement, aiming to create a more predictable regulatory environment. During her speech, Ansah emphasized the government’s commitment to strengthen consultations with businesses prior to policy changes, a move designed to address the prevalent concerns over abrupt regulatory shifts and fragmented decision-making. “Policy stability is essential if we are to attract and retain investment, “Ansah declared, emphasizing the need for a business climate rooted in transparency and accountability.
The summit, themed “Leading with Purpose: Harnessing the Power of Transparency and Accountability, “was a platform for corporate leaders, policymakers, and development partners to discuss economic governance reforms. Wisely Phiri, president of the Malawi Confederation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry, highlighted the significance of leadership and collaboration in fostering trust and improving competitiveness. Analysts suggest that the government’s pledges, if effectively implemented, could stabilize investor sentiment and support long-term economic growth.
The commitment to policy stability and private sector engagement comes at a critical time for Malawi, which seeks to enhance its economic governance and create a more conducive business environment.
