La Direction générale joue un rôle important à l'appui des priorités ministérielles et gouvernementales en assurant que les régimes de PI, d'entreprise et d'insolvabilité soient propices à l'entrepreneuriat, à l'innovation, à l'investissement et à la concurrence tout en favorisant l'intérêt public. Elle atteindra ces objectifs par les moyens suivants : évaluer la nécessité d'améliorer les lois, les règlements et les politiques; suivre l'évolution de la situation nationale et internationale; réaliser des études et consulter les intervenants; faciliter le processus législatif et s'efforcer d'éclairer le public et les intervenants; et participer à des pourparlers et à des négociations internationales dans les domaines qui relèvent de ses compétences. 1, record 4, French, - Direction%20g%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale%20des%20politiques%2Dcadres%20du%20march%C3%A9
