Why it matters
The new rules are intended to ensure compliance with Presidential Decree No. 570, which established rules for budget drafts, monitoring revenue and expenditure estimates, and dividend policies for state-owned enterprises. The exemption for Azerbaijan Investment Holding means this specific entity is not subject to these new governance requirements.
