SME RESOURCES
 
As part of its ongoing efforts to assist SMEs in Brunei Darussalam, the BEDB has created the following Framework for a Joint Venture Agreement. This guide is targeted at SMEs who are contemplating or negotiating business joint ventures in Brunei Darussalam.
 
This Framework is intended to illustrate a typical structure for creating a business joint venture and to highlight the common issues are rising and some of the approaches used to address them.
 
It is hoped that local SMEs will use this Framework as a reference. However, users should bear in mind that no two joint ventures are the same. Each will have its own unique circumstances and challenges that will require a unique set of solutions, These will emerge through the negotiating process with the parties involved.
