Speaking at a meeting with the Board of Directors of the Chamber of Guilds, Madanizadeh reaffirmed his commitment to supporting the private sector and guilds, a promise he said remains central to his policymaking approach.
“We will maintain continuous dialogue with representatives of the private sector and guilds to understand the challenges facing citizens and formulate practical, targeted solutions,” he noted.
Addressing chamber members, Madanizadeh emphasized the value of on-the-ground insight. “You are directly engaged with the public. Regular reports from you on market dynamics and community needs are vital for informing economic decisions at both the macro and micro levels.”
Responding to calls from guild representatives for adjustments to tax policy—including raising the tax exemption threshold and reducing levies in light of the recent 12-day conflict—Madanizadeh pledged to review the proposals with the head of the Tax Affairs Organization, mindful of budgetary limitations.
He outlined a sweeping plan to move beyond traditional taxation, advocating for a fully digitalized framework. “Our goal is smart taxation—automated systems that exempt low-activity entities and determine liabilities with precision and fairness,” he said.
Among his broader reform agenda, Madanizadeh also cited efforts to digitize additional ministry operations and to shift enterprise financing toward the capital markets. He confirmed these initiatives are under active review within a dedicated working group.
