It is a great mistake to assume that there is any single interest for commercial businesses. What benefits one concern doesn’t necessarily benefit all. Relationships and interactions within markets may be competitive, collaborative and even both simultaneously.
Politicians and business don’t always make easy bedfellows, however it is essential that each makes the effort to understand the other. Only that way can we create a climate where commercial activity can be set within a long-term context of economic growth and social justice.
Whatever way businesses differ, they all need an economic climate of stability to facilitate investment and the expansion of employment.
