Speaking during a plenary session dedicated to addressing parliamentary questions on the 2025 draft finance bill, Madouri emphasized the government’s commitment to promoting the use of international technology cards and facilitating the integration of youth into the global digital marketplace.
This initiative is part of a broader revision of Tunisia’s foreign exchange code, paving the way for managing transactions involving digital currencies and virtual assets.
“By reforming our exchange code, we are creating new economic opportunities and preparing Tunisia for the next generation of financial innovation,” said Madouri.
The government is also focused on driving entrepreneurship by introducing a revised version of the Startup Act.
This updated legislation aims to simplify administrative procedures, strengthen support for innovation, and stimulate the creation of startups and innovative enterprises across Tunisia.
Madouri described these efforts as a cornerstone of Tunisia’s long-term vision to transition towards a more dynamic and inclusive economic model, aligning with the nation’s 2035 development objectives.
“Our aim is to create a robust environment where innovation can thrive, building an economy ready for the future,” he stated.
Additionally, the Prime Minister highlighted the importance of regional development as part of the government’s strategy.
Responding to the needs expressed by local economic actors, the administration has allocated more than 10 billion dinars for regional and governorate-level development projects.
This initiative seeks to bridge the gap between different areas of the country and foster balanced growth across Tunisia.
Madouri reiterated that these combined efforts would not only modernize the country’s economy but also ensure that all Tunisians benefit from the nation’s progress, regardless of their region or background.
