Self-regulatory organizations (SROs) in the world are voluntary business associations, the purpose of which is to control the work of members to improve the quality of their professional activities and protect consumer interests. Self-regulation reduces administrative pressure on business and, at the same time, promotes higher standards, competitiveness in the market as well as the protection of business reputation of entrepreneurs. In Ukraine, there are only 20 SROs in 5 of 15 types of activities permitted by law. Dozens of other organizations and associations can not obtain an official status, while there is no holistic approach to self-regulation.
Does Ukraine need the self-regulation? What should it be? Is a lack of a single law a problem or advantage? Why do lawmakers “provide” the self-regulation for some and restrict it for others? How to distinguish between “professional self-regulation” and “professional self-government”?
The government, business and experts will try to find answers during the round table “Self-regulation in Ukraine: balance of business, government and consumer interests” in Kyiv on November 3.

- Maksim Nefyodov, First Deputy Minister of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine
