Abstract

Un environnement économique favorable est crucial pour stimuler la productivité en Belgique et l’inclusivité, et est le principal moteur de la prospérité économique à long terme. Ce document analyse l’impact de l’environnement économique sur la performance de productivité. La gestion des innovations, la diffusion technologique, l’investissement des secteurs privé et public ainsi que les politiques de concurrence et de régulation ont tous un impact sur la croissance de la productivité. Les défis clefs pour la Belgique incluent la modulation des exonérations fiscales en vigueur en faveur des activités de recherche-développement afin d’améliorer leur utilisation et leur efficacité ; la réduction des charges administratives sur les entreprises, l’amélioration de l’accès à la finance pour les jeunes entreprises innovantes et la stimulation de la culture entrepreneuriale en matière de jeunes pousses.
