Executives see New Jersey is becoming as more business friendly but voice major concerns about its regulatory climate
While the state’s top executives believe New Jersey is becoming a better place to expand and run a business, they still have major concerns about its regulatory climate, a panel of business leaders said today at an economic policy summit unveiling the results of a CEO survey by the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University.
“A difference has been made almost overnight with the perception of New Jersey as a place to do business, but it takes a long time to turn structural issues around,” said Michael Van Wagner, executive director of the New Jersey Business Action Center. “If you had interactions with the administration, your view on the regulatory environment would be more favorable than it was in the past two years. It has to be, because I see it every day.” (Eder, NJBIZ)
